correct knowledge of the manner and order of the _appearances_
of Christ after His resurrection. The following order of appearances may help in the understanding of the testimony to the resurrection: 1. The women at the grave see the vision of angels. 2. The women separate at the grave to make known the news --Mary Magdalene going to tell Peter and John, who doubtless lived close by (for it seems that they reached the grave in a single run). The other women go to tell the other disciples who, probably, were at Bethany. 3. Peter and John, hearing the news, run to the grave, leaving Mary. They then return home. 4. Mary follows; lingers at the grave; gets vision of the Master, and command to go tell the disciples. 5. The other women see Christ on the way. 6. Christ appears to the two on the way to Emmaus. 7. To Simon Peter. 8. To the ten apostles, and other friends. 9. To the apostles at Tiberias. |
