How many times did Jesus show himself after the resurrection?
Matthew has two post-resurrection appearances, the first to Mary Magdalene and “the other Mary” at the tomb, and the second, based on Mark 16:7, to all the disciples on a mountain in Galilee, where Jesus claims authority over heaven and Earth and commissions the disciples to preach the gospel to the whole world.
What did Jesus explain would be the result of his resurrection?
Jesus said He would die and be raised from the dead in three days. Many times Jesus told His disciples precisely what would happen. Because Jesus fulfilled His promise about His own death and resurrection, we can be sure that Jesus will keep other promises too.
Who was the first person Jesus visited after his resurrection?
Mary Magdalene
9 Now when he was risen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons. 10 She went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
What did Jesus do for 40 days after his resurrection?
— N.G. DEAR N.G.: The Bible clearly states that after His resurrection Jesus repeatedly appeared to His disciples over a period of 40 days, and then miraculously ascended into the presence of God. The Bible says, “He was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight” (Acts 1:9).
Is it true that Jesus predicted his death and resurrection?
But there are very good reasons to believe that Jesus did in fact anticipate his violent death and his vindication by means of resurrection. Let us consider the evidence for Jesus’ anticipation of his violent death. First of all, the fate of John the Baptist surely portended to Jesus his own fate.
Who was the first person to predict jesus’resurrection?
The predictions by Jesus of His resurrection were of such common knowledge that it led the religious rulers to ask Pontius Pilate to secure the tomb.
What did Jesus say about the third day of resurrection?
Second, Jesus’ prediction of his resurrection “after three days” or “on the third day” almost certainly was based on Hos 6:2, as reflected in the Aramaic paraphrase. This is the product of the Aramaic-speaking, Scripture-interpreting Jesus, not the Greek Scripture-reading, proof-texting Christian community after Easter.
Where did Jesus say he would be raised again?
From that time Jesus began to show to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day ( Matthew 16:21 ). Jesus also made the amazing claim that He had the authority to accomplish the resurrection Himself.
