Now in the morning, a long while before daylight, he rose and went out to a solitary place, and there he prayed.

And he rose, and immediately took up the pallet and went out in the sight of them all; so that they were all amazed and glorified God, saying, "We never saw anything like this!"

As he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office, and he said to him, "Follow me." So he rose and followed him.

Then he rose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.

And throwing aside his garment, he rose and came to Jesus.

Now when he rose early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven demons.
