Describe the meaning of the resurrection appearances of Jesus in john's gospel.?

Answer 1

When Mary Magdalene went very early and still dark, to the grave of Jesus, she saw that the two stones blocked on the grave was put aside and taken away ,she run to Simon Peter and to other disciple and told them that the Lord Jesus was taken out and away from the grave and she do not know where he was place.

The two disciples then run to the place where Jesus was place and found only the linen clothes lying but the napkin which was placed on the head of Jesus was found wrapped with the linen. Then the other disciples went there and saw the truth about the disappearance of Jesus from his grave. and they know that Jesus will rise again from the dead, so the disciples went home.

So Mary stood before the grave and went crying or weeping and when she look down to the grave, she saw two angels, one sitting at the head and the other one sitting at the feet where the body of Jesus was laid.The two Angels asked Mary, why she was crying, so that Mary told them that Lord Jesus was missing and she could not find him anymore.

When Mary turned his back to the angels, he saw Jesus was standing but she do not know that he was Jesus.Jesus then asked her why she was crying and asked her what was she is seeking. Because Mary suspect that the man was a gardener, so she told him, sir where did you take my Lord so that I will take him away? When Jesus called him Mary, she turned to him and said Master.

So Jesus told her, do not touch me, I have not yet ascended to my father but go to my brothers and tell them I ascend unto my father and your Father and to my God and your God.. Mary Magdalene then went to the disciples and told them she have seen Lord Jesus who have talked to her.

AT the same day on that night which is the first day of the week, Jesus appeared to the disciples and told them "Peace be unto you". Jesus showed his hands and his side to prove that he was Jesus who was crucified, so the disciples felt happy that they have seen the Lord Jesus. So Jesus said again to them Peace be unto you, as my Father has sent me,even so with you. After saying those words, Jesus whispered to them,"You receive the Holy Ghost. whoever ask forgiveness of his sins will be forgiven but those who do not ask forgiveness will remain as their sin.

The other diusciples told Thomas that they have seen Jesus but Thomas did not believe them and said I will only believe when I can see the sign of the nails and if I will thrust my hand into His side, then I will believe.

After eight days when the dissciples were gathered with Thomas. Jesus came and stood before them at the middle and said Peace be unto you. and said to Thomas Reach your finger to me and touch my hands and thrust it into my side so that you will have faith in me and believe that it is me.. Then Thomas said My Lord and my God. Jesus told Thomas, because you have seen me now , you believe in me, blessed are those who have not seen me but believe in me.

There are many more signs and proof to show that Jesus appeared to the disciples after his death to the cross but it was not written in the book of John but it is believe ;that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.
