Also, what about all those dead people that got out of their graves, and walked into town, and were walking up to people on the street and saying "Hey, it's me !" ?
It's in Matthew 27:53 And if you can correlate it or add details that will help.
I thank you in advance for your replies.

It never happened.....
It's an urban legend...kinda like the whole Richard Gere and gerbil story that's been going around for decades, that everyone's heard so often it just sorta becomes factual to some.....

the saying goes, consider the source and go to the source.
your asking a question that is easily answered in the bible.
read the entire text....or lets put it this way, do you read only texts on your cell phone half way, or do you take things out of context when someone is writing you an email or text, or do you consider the source, and read the whole thing.
Go back, and read it.
Your talking about the resurrection, and after.
For those thinking it was all myth, your hearts are closed, and rejection of God love is very apparent...you choose your selfish pride..but you still have a chance till the day you die.
What more important, glorifying God, or self absorbtion.
We can google, web search everything, but when it comes to the bible, some of these posts are bible iliterate..and you will be amazed at how easy it is to read.
God is not the author of confusion. You just want to take the time to read it.
OOPs. are you getting another text message, rememeber dont interpret what they are plainly tell you, but we do that to God all the time.
Merry Christmas and Happy X year.

Jesus had not yet gone to the Father. He Had a glorified body
He could pass through walls . He had gone to paradise because he took the Good Thief With him. He still had the nail marks in his hands and feet and the Spear in His side.the People rising up out of their graves came at the time of Jesus crucifixition and not the three days after.

There are many examples of people being interred or buried when they weren't quite dead. This is why we have "Wakes". Traditionally, you sit around for a couple days and see if the "dead" person wakes up.
It's also where we get the phrase "Dead Ringer." At some point, they started burying people with a string tied to their finger, which was attached to a bell. If the person recovered or woke from a coma in the grave, they could ring the bell.

Well, it was three days and three nights. Since He was put in the grave about sundown, He must have arisen about sundown. He had a "glorified" body. It was different, though we don't know exactly how. He did eat, but he also walked through walls, and travelled almost instantly over great distances. I am amazed that we don't have a single name of those resurrected at that time. My understanding is that they went to heaven to be with the Almighty, though scripture doesn't say so specifically.

No, he stopped at Mickey D's for a coffee, went home for a quick shower and shave then hug out at the union hall waiting for a little work. That's where he met Simon and after convincing him that he was really there, they went down to the corner pub for a few brews. Really a pretty busy day I'd say. By the way, they really didn't say "hey it's me" they didn't speak English, that wasn't discovered until 1973.

Jesus was totally healed when He arose, except for the marks of the nails in His hands and feet, plus the spear wound.

Because he died for use because of that willingness to die and not blaming anybody for the hurt they caused doing so brought about the connection of witch we can be like unto him. when that happened he was resurrected into his perfect like state.
He showed himself unto few few people when he was resurrected to show his apostles that this is the true way.

Well no. He acted as if something did happen. And sure they did walk around town. I think they made a lot of believers.

The Word of our LORD and Savior is everlasting life for those who truly repent and believe on His name for salvation. Jesus rose from the dead and fulfilled all prophesy concerning Him.
Romans 10:8-10 But what saith it? THE WORD IS NIGH THEE, EVEN IN THY MOUTH, AND IN THY HEART: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the LORD Jesus, and believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
