But we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them who are falling asleep, - lest ye be sorrowing, even as the rest also, who are without hope; For, if we believe that, Jesus, died, and rose again, so, also will, God, bring forth with him, them who have fallen asleep through Jesus; For, this, unto you, do we say, by a word of the Lord, - that, we, the living who are left unto the Presence of the Lord, shall in nowise get before them who have fallen asleep; read more.
Because, the Lord himself, with a word of command, with a chief-messenger's voice, and with a trumpet of God, shall descend from heaven, - and, the dead in Christ, shall rise, first, After that, we, the living who are left, together with them, shall be caught away, in clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: - and, thus, evermore, with the Lord, shall we be! So then, be consoling one another with these words.

Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister. And Mary was she who anointed the Lord with perfume, and wiped his feet with her hair - whose brother Lazarus was sick. The sisters, therefore, sent out unto him, saying - Lord, see! he whom thou tenderly lovest, is sick. read more.
But Jesus hearing, said - This sickness, is not unto death, but for the glory of God, - that the Son of God may be glorified thereby. Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. When, therefore, he heard that he was sick, then, indeed, he abode in the place where he was, two days. Then, after this, he saith unto the disciples - Let us be leading on into Judaea, again. The disciples say unto him - Rabbi! just now, were the Jews seeking to stone thee - and, again, goest thou thither? Jesus answered - Are there not, twelve hours, in the day? If one walk in the day, he doth no stumble, because, the light of this world, he seeth; But, if one walk in the night, he stumbleth, because, the light, is not in him. These things, he said, and, after this, he saith unto them - Lazarus, our dear friend, hath fallen asleep; but I am going, that I may awake him. The disciples, therefore, said unto him - Lord! if he have fallen asleep, he will recover. But Jesus had spoken concerning his death; whereas, they, supposed that, concerning the taking of rest in sleep, he had been speaking. Jesus, therefore, then, said unto them, plainly, - Lazarus, died; and I rejoice, for your sake - that ye may believe, - that I was not there; but let us be going unto him. Thomas, therefore, the one called Didymus, said unto his fellow-disciples - Let, us also, be going, that we may die with him. Jesus, therefore, coming, found that, four days already, had he been in the tomb. Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off; and, many from among the Jews, had come unto Martha and Mary, that they might console them concerning their brother. Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went to meet him; but, Mary, in the house, remained sitting. Martha, therefore, said unto Jesus - Lord! if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died; And, now, I know, that, whatsoever thou shalt ask of God, God, will give unto thee. Jesus saith unto her - Thy brother shall rise. Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise, in the resurrection, in the last day. Jesus said unto her - I, am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth on me, even though he die, shall live again! And, no one who liveth again and believeth on me, shall in anywise die, unto times age-abiding. Believest thou this? She saith unto him - Yea, Lord! I, have believed, that, thou, art the Christ, the Son of God, - He who, into the world, should come. And this saying, she went away, and called Mary her sister, secretly, saying - The teacher, is present, and calleth thee. And, she, when she heard, was roused up quickly, and was coming unto him. Not yet, however, had Jesus come into the village, but was still in the place where, Martha, met him. The Jews, therefore, who were with her in the house and consoling her, seeing Mary, that quickly she arose and went out, followed her, supposing that she was withdrawing unto the tomb, that she might weep there. Mary, therefore, when she came where Jesus was, seeing him, fell at his feet, saying unto him - Lord! if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, was indignant in the spirit, and troubled himself, and said - Where have ye laid him? They say unto him - Lord! come and see. Jesus wept. The Jews, therefore, were saying - See! how tenderly he loved him! But, some from among them, said - Could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that, this one also, should not have died? Jesus, therefore, again, being indignant within himself, cometh unto the tomb. Now it was a cave, and, a stone, was lying thereon. Jesus, saith, Take ye away the stone! Martha, the sister of the deceased, saith unto him - Lord! by this time, he stinketh, for it is, four days. Jesus saith unto her - Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldst believe, thou shouldst see the glory of God? So they took away the stone. And, Jesus, lifted up his eyes on high, and said - Father! I thank thee, thou didst hear me: I, indeed, knew that, always, unto me, thou dost hearken; but, for the sake of the multitude standing around, I spake, - that they might believe that, thou, didst send me forth. And, these things, having said, with a loud voice, he cried out - Lazarus! Come forth! He that was dead came forth, bound feet and hands with bandages, and, his face, with a napkin, was bound about. Jesus saith unto them - Loose him, and let him go.

And, the Sabbath having passed, Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, that, coming, they might anoint him. And, very early, on the first of the week, they are coming towards the tomb - when, the sun, arose. And they were saying one to another - Who, shall roll away for us the stone, out of the door of the tomb? read more.
And, looking up, they observe that the stone hath been rolled up, - for it was exceeding great. And, entering into the tomb, they saw a young man, sitting on the right, clothed with a white robe, - and they were greatly alarmed. But, he, saith unto them - Be not alarmed! Jesus, ye are seeking, the Nazarene, the crucified: He hath arisen! he is not here, - See! the place where they laid him! But go your way, tell his disciples, and Peter - He is going before you into Galilee: there, shall ye yourselves see him, - according as he said unto you. And, going out, they fled from the tomb, for, trembling and transport, were holding them; and, unto no one, said they, anything, for they were afraid.

but, on the first day of the week, at early dawn, unto the tomb, came they, bringing the spices which they had prepared. And they found the stone, rolled away from the tomb; but, when they entered, they found not the body . read more.
And it came to pass, while they were perplexing themselves concerning this, that 1o! two men, stood near them, in dazzling raiment. And, they becoming afraid, and bending their faces unto the ground, they said unto them - Why seek ye the Living One with the dead? Remember how he spake unto you while yet he was in Galilee: Saying, as to the Son of Man, that he must needs be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, - and, on the third day, arise. And they remembered his sayings; and, returning from the tomb, reported all these things unto the eleven, and unto all the rest. Now they were the Magdalene Mary, and Joana, and Mary the mother of James; and, the other women with them, were telling, unto the apostles, these things. And these sayings appeared before them, as if idle talk, and they were minded to disbelieve them. And lo! two from among them, on the selfsame day, were journeying unto a village, distant sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, the name of which, was Emmaus; and, they, were conversing one with another, about all these things which had occurred. And it came to pass, as they were conversing and reasoning together, that, Jesus himself, drawing near, was journeying with them; but, their eyes, were held, so as not to know him. And he said unto them - What are these things which ye are debating one with another, as ye walk along? And they came to a stand, sad in countenance. But one, by name Cleopas, answering, said unto him - Art, thou, lodging, alone, in Jerusalem, and knowest not the things which have come to pass therein in these days? And he said unto them - What things? And, they, said unto him - The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who became a prophet, mighty in work and word, before God and all the people: In what way also our High-priests and Rulers delivered him up unto a sentence of death, and crucified him. We, however, were hoping that, he, was the one destined to redeem Israel! But indeed, even with all these things, this brings on, the third, day, since these things happened: - Nay! certain women also, from amongst us, have made us beside ourselves, in that they went early unto the tomb; and, not finding his body, came, saying - that, a vision of messengers, they had seen, who were affirming him to be alive. And certain of them who were with us departed unto the tomb, - and found so, according as, the women, had said; but, him, they saw not. And, he, said unto them - O thoughtless ones! and slow in heart to rest your faith upon all things which the prophets have spoken: - Was it not needful for the Christ, these very things, to suffer, and to enter into his glory? And, beginning from Moses, and from all the prophets, he thoroughly explained to them, in all the Scriptures, the things concerning himself. And they drew near unto the village, whither they were journeying; and, he, made for journeying, further. And they constrained him, saying - Abide with us; because it is, towards evening, and the day hath already declined. And he went in to abide with them. And it came to pass, when he reclined with them, taking the loaf, he blessed, and, breaking it, went on to give unto them. And, their, eyes were opened, and they knew him; and, he, vanished from them. And they said one to another - Was not, our heart, burning, as he was speaking to us in the way, as he was opening to us the Scriptures? And, arising in that very hour, they returned unto Jerusalem, - and found, gathered together, the eleven, and them who were with them, saying - In truth, the Lord hath arisen, and hath appeared unto Simon! And, they, went on to relate the things, that had passed on the journey, and how he was made known unto them in the breaking of the loaf. Now, as, these very things, they were telling, he himself, stood in their midst But, being agitated and becoming, afraid, they began to imagine, that, upon a spirit, they were looking. And he said unto them - Why are ye troubled? and for what cause do reasonings arise in your hearts? See my hands, and my feet, - that it is, I, myself: Handle me, and see! because, a spirit, hath not, flesh and bones, as ye perceive, I, have. Now, while yet they believed not for the joy, and were marvelling, he said unto them - Have ye anything to eat, here? And they gave unto him a piece of boiled fish; and, taking it before them, he did eat. And he said unto them - These, are my words, which I spake unto you yet being with you: That all the things that are written in the law of Moses and the Prophets and Psalms, concerning me, must needs be fulfilled. Then, opened he their mind, to understand the Scriptures; and said unto them - Thus, it is written, That the Christ, should suffer, and arise from among the dead on the third day;
