36
As they said these things, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, "Peace be to you."
37
But they were terrified and filled with fear, and supposed that they saw a spirit.
38
He said to them, "Why are you troubled? Why do questionings arise in your hearts?
39
See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see, for a spirit doesn`t have flesh and bones, as you see that I have."
40
When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.
41
While they still didn`t believe for joy, and wondered, he said to them, "Do you have anything here to eat?"
42
They gave him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb.
43
He took it, and ate in front of them.
44
He said to them, "This is what I told you, while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which are written in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms, concerning me."
45
Then he opened their minds, that they might understand the scriptures.
46
He said to them, "Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,
47
and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
48
You are witnesses of these things.
49
Behold, I send forth the promise of my Father on you. But wait in the city of Jerusalem until you are clothed with power from on high."
