Verily I say to you, wherever this good news may be proclaimed in the whole world, what also this woman did shall be spoken of -- for a memorial of her.'

And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.

And there was he called Barabbas, bound with those exciting sedition, who did murder in the revolt.

The crowd came up and began asking Pilate to do as he usually did for them.

And he, having risen in the morning of the first of the sabbaths, did appear first to Mary the Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven demons;

and they, having heard that he is alive, and was seen by her, did not believe.

and they went and brought word to the rest; neither did they believe them.
