But I would not have you ignorant, brothers, about those who are falling asleep. You must not sorrow like other men, who have no hope. For if we really believe that Jesus died and rose again, so even so will God through Jesus bring with him those also who have fallen asleep. For this I tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are living, who survive unto the coming of the Lord, will in no wise precede those who have fallen asleep. read more.
For the Lord himself with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God will descend from heaven. Then the dead in Christ will rise first. And afterwards we who are alive, who remain, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we ever be with the Lord. So comfort one another with these words.

Now a man named Lazarus was ill. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha??2 it was Mary who anointed the Lord with perfume and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill. So the sisters sent to him, saying. "Master, see who you hold dear is ill." When Jesus heard it he said, "This illness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that through it the Son of God may be glorified." read more.
Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. However, when he heard that he was ill, he still remained where he was for two days; then after that he said to his disciples, "Let us go back again to Judea." "Rabbi," answered his disciples, "it was but just now that the Jews were trying to stone you, and are you going there again?" Jesus replied. "Are there not twelve hours in the daytime? If any one walks in the daytime he does not stumble, because he beholds the light of this world; but if any one walks during the night he does stumble, because the light is not in him." This he said, then told them, "Lazarus, our friend, has fallen asleep, but I am going to wake him." "Master, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well," replied the disciples. Now Jesus had been speaking concerning his death, but they thought that he was talking about natural sleep. So then he told them plainly. "Lazarus is dead; and for your sakes I am glad I was not there, in order that you may believe. Come, let us go to him." Upon this Thomas, who was called "The Twin," said to his fellow disciples, "Let us go too, that we may die with him." so when Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been four days in the tomb. Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, only about two miles away; so a number of the Jews had gone to Martha and Mary to sympathize with them concerning their brother. So when Martha learned that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him, but Mary remained sitting in the house. Then Martha said to Jesus. "Master, had you been here my brother would not have died; but even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you." Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again." Martha answered, "I know that he will rise in the resurrection, at the Last Day." "I am the resurrection and the life," said Jesus. "He who believes in me, even if he has died, shall live. And every one who is living and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?" "Yes, Master," she answered, "I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world." With these words she went away to call her sister Mary, saying privately, "The Teacher is here and is asking for you." So when Mary heard this, she rose quickly and went to meet him. Jesus had not yet arrived in the village, but was still at the place where Martha met him. Then the Jews who were in the house trying to console her, when they saw that Mary rose quickly and went out, followed her, because they thought she was going to the tomb to weep there. When Mary came to the place where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying, "Master had you been here, my brother would not have died." Then when Jesus saw her sobbing, and the Jews likewise who accompanied her, sobbing, he shuddered with indignation in his spirit, and was deeply agitated. "Where have you laid him?" he said: "Master, come and see," they answered. Jesus burst into tears. "See how he loved him," said the Jews. But some of them said, "Could not this man, who has opened the eyes of the blind man, have prevented this man also from dying?" Jesus therefore, again shuddering in himself with indignation, came to the tomb, which was a cave with a stone lying upon it. "Roll away the stone," said Jesus. "Master," said Martha, the sister of the dead man "he is offensive by this time, for he has been four days in the tomb." Jesus answered her, "Did I not tell you that if you would believe you should see the glory of God?" Then they rolled the stone away; and Jesus lifted up his eyes and said: "Father, I thank thee that thou hast listened to me. And I knew that thou art ever listening to me, but for the sake of the crowd who are standing about, I said it, in order that they may believe that thou hast sent me." When he had said this he cried with a great voice, "Lazarus, come forth!" Out came the dead man, wrapped hand and foot with grave-clothes, and his face bound up in a napkin. Jesus said to them, "Untie him, and let him go."

When the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James, and Salome brought spices in order to go and anoint him. And very early in the morning, on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb as the sun was rising; and they kept saying to one another, "Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the tomb?" read more.
But then as they looked up they saw that the stone, which was a very large one, was already rolled away; and upon entering the tomb they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a white robe. They were terrified, but he said to them. "Do not be terrified! You are seeking Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified? He is risen; he is not here. See, the place where they laid him! But go, tell his disciples and Peter, "'He is going before you into Galilee, where you will see him, as he told you.'" So they went out, and ran from the tomb, for they were trembling and amazed; and they said nothing to any one, for they were afraid??9 Now after his resurrection, early on the first day of the week he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had driven out seven demons. She went and told those who had been with him, as they mourned and wept. But they, although they heard that he was living and had been seen by her did not believe it. After this he appeared in another form to two of them as they were walking on their way into the country. They too went, and told the others; but they did not believe them, either. Afterward he appeared to the Eleven themselves, as they were eating, and reproached them for their lack of faith, and stubborn hearts, because they disbelieved those who had seen him risen.

On the Sabbath Day they rested in obedience to the commandment, but in the deep dawn of the first day of the week they took the spices which they had prepared, and came to the tomb. And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, and on entering they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. read more.
While they were still perplexed over this, it happened that the two men stood near them in dazzling raiment. They were terrified, and bowed down their faces to the ground, but the men said to them. "Why are you seeking him who lives among the dead? "He is not here; he is risen. Do you remember how he told you when he was still in Galilee that the Son of man had to be betrayed into the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and to rise on the third day?" Then they recollected his words, and turning away from the tomb they told all this to the eleven, and to all the rest. It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James, and the rest of the women who were telling all this to the apostles. But the whole story seemed to them but an idle tale; and they disbelieved the women. Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb, but when he stooped and looked in he saw the linen wrappings by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering at that which was come to pass. On that same day two of his disciples were walking to Emmaus, a village about seven miles from Jerusalem. They were talking together about all these events, and as they talked and discussed matter, Jesus himself drew near and began walking beside them. But their eyes continued to be held that they should not recognize him even for an instant, And he said to them, "What words are these that you are exchanging one with another, as you walk along?" They stood still, looking sad. And one of them named Cleopas, answered him, "Do you sojourn alone in Jerusalem, that you do not know what things have been happening there these days?" "What kind of things?" he answered. And they said: "The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people; "and how our high priest and ruler delivered him to be condemned to death and crucified him. "But we were hoping that it was he who should redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this is the third day since these things happened. "Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. They went to his tomb at daybreak, "and found that his body was not there; then they came and told us that besides they had seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive. "Thereupon some of our own party to the tomb, and found it even so as the women had said, but him they did not see." "O foolish men," said Jesus, "slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! "Behooved it not the Christ to suffer thus, and then to enter into his glory?" And beginning with Moses and the Prophets, he interpreted all the passages concerning himself. When they drew near to the village to which they are were going, he appeared to be going farther. But they urged him to stay with them, saying, "Abide with us, for it is toward evening, and the day is now far spent." So he went in to stay with them. But as he sat down with them, and took bread, and had blessed and broken it, and was handing it to them, their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, and he vanished out of their sight. "Were not our hearts burning within us," they said to each other, "while we were talking with him on the way, and he was opening to us the scriptures?" So they rose and returned to Jerusalem that very hour, and found the Eleven and the others all met together, saying, "The Lord is really risen, and has appeared to Simon!" Then they began to tell what happened on the road, and he was known to them when he broke the bread. While they were yet speaking he stood among them and said, "Peace be to you!" They were startled and terrified and thought that they were seeing a ghost. And he said to them. "Why are you disturbed? And why do questions rise in your hearts? "Look at my hands and my feet. It is I! Feel me and see; for a ghost has not flesh and blood as I have." Then he showed them his hands and feet. But while they still did not believe it for joy, and were filled with wonder, he asked them, "Have you anything here to eat?" So they gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he took it and ate it in their presence. Then he said to them, "These are my words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, how all things must be fulfilled which are written in the Law of Moses, and the prophets, and the Psalms concerning me." Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, and he said: "Thus it is written that the Christ should suffer and rise again from the dead, the third day;

Then I said, "I am come??n the roll of the book it is written of me??o do thy will, O God." First when it is said, Thou hast no longing for, thou takest no delight in Sacrifices and offerings, or whole burnt offerings and sin offerings, (offerings regularly made under the law), and then it is added, Lo, I come to do thy will, he does away with the first, in order that he may establish the second.
