18 aMary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these things to her.
The Apostles Commissioned
19 aThen, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were1 assembled, for bfear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, c“Peace be with you.”
20 When He had said this, He ashowed them His hands and His side. bThen the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.
22 And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.
23 aIf you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”
Seeing and Believing
24 Now Thomas, acalled the Twin, one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came.
25 The other disciples therefore said to him, “We have seen the Lord.” So he said to them, “Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe.”
