PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 وَفِي أَوَّلِ ٱلْأُسْبُوعِ جَاءَتْ مَرْيَمُ ٱلْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ بَاكِرًا، وَٱلظَّلَامُ بَاقٍ. فَنَظَرَتِ ٱلْحَجَرَ مَرْفُوعًا عَنِ ٱلْقَبْرِ.
1 Τῇ δὲ μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ ἔρχεται πρωῒ σκοτίας ἔτι οὔσης εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον, καὶ βλέπει τὸν λίθον ἠρμένον ἐκ τοῦ μνημείου.
2 فَرَكَضَتْ وَجَاءَتْ إِلَى سِمْعَانَ بُطْرُسَ وَإِلَى ٱلتِّلْمِيذِ ٱلْآخَرِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَسُوعُ يُحِبُّهُ، وَقَالَتْ لَهُمَا: «أَخَذُوا ٱلسَّيِّدَ مِنَ ٱلْقَبْرِ، وَلَسْنَا نَعْلَمُ أَيْنَ وَضَعُوهُ!».
2 τρέχει οὖν καὶ ἔρχεται πρὸς Σίμωνα Πέτρον καὶ πρὸς τὸν ἄλλον μαθητὴν ὃν ἐφίλει ὁ Ἰησοῦς, καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· ἦραν τὸν Κύριον ἐκ τοῦ μνημείου, καὶ οὐκ οἴδαμεν ποῦ ἔθηκαν αὐτόν.
3 فَخَرَجَ بُطْرُسُ وَٱلتِّلْمِيذُ ٱلْآخَرُ وَأَتَيَا إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ.
3 ἐξῆλθεν οὖν ὁ Πέτρος καὶ ὁ ἄλλος μαθητὴς καὶ ἤρχοντο εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον.
4 وَكَانَ ٱلِٱثْنَانِ يَرْكُضَانِ مَعًا. فَسَبَقَ ٱلتِّلْمِيذُ ٱلْآخَرُ بُطْرُسَ وَجَاءَ أَوَّلًا إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ،
4 ἔτρεχον δὲ οἱ δύο ὁμοῦ· καὶ ὁ ἄλλος μαθητὴς προέδραμε τάχιον τοῦ Πέτρου καὶ ἦλθε πρῶτος εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον,
5 وَٱنْحَنَى فَنَظَرَ ٱلْأَكْفَانَ مَوْضُوعَةً، وَلَكِنَّهُ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ.
5 καὶ παρακύψας βλέπει κείμενα τὰ ὀθόνια, οὐ μέντοι εἰσῆλθεν.
6 ثُمَّ جَاءَ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ يَتْبَعُهُ، وَدَخَلَ ٱلْقَبْرَ وَنَظَرَ ٱلْأَكْفَانَ مَوْضُوعَةً،
6 ἔρχεται οὖν Σίμων Πέτρος ἀκολουθῶν αὐτῷ, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον καὶ θεωρεῖ τὰ ὀθόνια κείμενα,
7 وَٱلْمِنْدِيلَ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ لَيْسَ مَوْضُوعًا مَعَ ٱلْأَكْفَانِ، بَلْ مَلْفُوفًا فِي مَوْضِعٍ وَحْدَهُ.
7 καὶ τὸ σουδάριον, ὃ ἦν ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ, οὐ μετὰ τῶν ὀθονίων κείμενον, ἀλλὰ χωρὶς ἐντετυλιγμένον εἰς ἕνα τόπον.
8 فَحِينَئِذٍ دَخَلَ أَيْضًا ٱلتِّلْمِيذُ ٱلْآخَرُ ٱلَّذِي جَاءَ أَوَّلًا إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ، وَرَأَى فَآمَنَ،
8 τότε οὖν εἰσῆλθε καὶ ὁ ἄλλος μαθητὴς ὁ ἐλθὼν πρῶτος εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον, καὶ εἶδε καὶ ἐπίστευσεν·
9 لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَكُونُوا بَعْدُ يَعْرِفُونَ ٱلْكِتَابَ: أَنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَقُومَ مِنَ ٱلْأَمْوَاتِ.
9 οὐδέπω γὰρ ᾔδεισαν τὴν γραφὴν ὅτι δεῖ αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῆναι.
10 فَمَضَى ٱلتِّلْمِيذَانِ أَيْضًا إِلَى مَوْضِعِهِمَا.
10 ἀπῆλθον οὖν πάλιν πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς οἱ μαθηταί.
11 أَمَّا مَرْيَمُ فَكَانَتْ وَاقِفَةً عِنْدَ ٱلْقَبْرِ خَارِجًا تَبْكِي. وَفِيمَا هِيَ تَبْكِي ٱنْحَنَتْ إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ،
11 Μαρία δὲ εἱστήκει πρὸς τῷ μνημείῳ κλαίουσα ἔξω.
12 فَنَظَرَتْ مَلَاكَيْنِ بِثِيَابٍ بِيضٍ جَالِسَيْنِ وَاحِدًا عِنْدَ ٱلرَّأْسِ وَٱلْآخَرَ عِنْدَ ٱلرِّجْلَيْنِ، حَيْثُ كَانَ جَسَدُ يَسُوعَ مَوْضُوعًا.
12 ὡς οὖν ἔκλαιε, παρέκυψεν εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον καὶ θεωρεῖ δύο ἀγγέλους ἐν λευκοῖς καθεζομένους, ἕνα πρὸς τῇ κεφαλῇ καὶ ἕνα πρὸς τοῖς ποσίν, ὅπου ἔκειτο τὸ σῶμα τοῦ Ἰησοῦ.
13 فَقَالَا لَهَا: «يَا ٱمْرَأَةُ، لِمَاذَا تَبْكِينَ؟». قَالَتْ لَهُمَا: «إِنَّهُمْ أَخَذُوا سَيِّدِي، وَلَسْتُ أَعْلَمُ أَيْنَ وَضَعُوهُ!».
13 καὶ λέγουσιν αὐτῇ ἐκεῖνοι· γύναι, τί κλαίεις; λέγει αὐτοῖς· ὅτι ἦραν τὸν Κύριόν μου, καὶ οὐκ οἶδα ποῦ ἔθηκαν αὐτόν.
14 وَلَمَّا قَالَتْ هَذَا ٱلْتَفَتَتْ إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ، فَنَظَرَتْ يَسُوعَ وَاقِفًا، وَلَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ يَسُوعُ.
14 καὶ ταῦτα εἰποῦσα ἐστράφη εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω, καὶ θεωρεῖ τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἑστῶτα, καὶ οὐκ ᾔδει ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστι.
15 قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: «يَا ٱمْرَأَةُ، لِمَاذَا تَبْكِينَ؟ مَنْ تَطْلُبِينَ؟». فَظَنَّتْ تِلْكَ أَنَّهُ ٱلْبُسْتَانِيُّ، فَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، إِنْ كُنْتَ أَنْتَ قَدْ حَمَلْتَهُ فَقُلْ لِي أَيْنَ وَضَعْتَهُ، وَأَنَا آخُذُهُ».
15 λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· γύναι, τί κλαίεις; τίνα ζητεῖς; ἐκείνη δοκοῦσα ὅτι ὁ κηπουρός ἐστι, λέγει αὐτῷ· κύριε, εἰ σὺ ἐβάστασας αὐτόν, εἰπέ μοι ποῦ ἔθηκας αὐτόν, κἀγὼ αὐτὸν ἀρῶ.
16 قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: «يَا مَرْيَمُ». فَٱلْتَفَتَتْ تِلْكَ وَقَالَتْ لَهُ: «رَبُّونِي!» ٱلَّذِي تَفْسِيرُهُ: يَا مُعَلِّمُ.
16 λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Μαρία. στραφεῖσα ἐκείνη λέγει αὐτῷ· ῥαββουνί, ὃ λέγεται, διδάσκαλε.
17 قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: «لَا تَلْمِسِينِي لِأَنِّي لَمْ أَصْعَدْ بَعْدُ إِلَى أَبِي. وَلَكِنِ ٱذْهَبِي إِلَى إِخْوَتِي وَقُولِي لَهُمْ: إِنِّي أَصْعَدُ إِلَى أَبِي وَأَبِيكُمْ وَإِلَهِي وَإِلَهِكُمْ».
17 λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· μή μου ἅπτου· οὔπω γὰρ ἀναβέβηκα πρὸς τὸν πατέρα μου· πορεύου δὲ πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφούς μου καὶ εἰπὲ αὐτοῖς· ἀναβαίνω πρὸς τὸν πατέρα μου καὶ πατέρα ὑμῶν, καὶ Θεόν μου καὶ Θεὸν ὑμῶν.
18 فَجَاءَتْ مَرْيَمُ ٱلْمَجْدَلِيَّةُ وَأَخْبَرَتِ ٱلتَّلَامِيذَ أَنَّهَا رَأَتِ ٱلرَّبَّ، وَأَنَّهُ قَالَ لَهَا هَذَا.
18 ἔρχεται Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνὴ ἀπαγγέλλουσα τοῖς μαθηταῖς ὅτι ἑώρακε τὸν Κύριον, καὶ ταῦτα εἶπεν αὐτῇ.
19 وَلَمَّا كَانَتْ عَشِيَّةُ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، وَهُوَ أَوَّلُ ٱلْأُسْبُوعِ، وَكَانَتِ ٱلْأَبْوَابُ مُغَلَّقَةً حَيْثُ كَانَ ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ مُجْتَمِعِينَ لِسَبَبِ ٱلْخَوْفِ مِنَ ٱلْيَهُودِ، جَاءَ يَسُوعُ وَوَقَفَ فِي ٱلْوَسْطِ، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «سَلَامٌ لَكُمْ!».
19 Οὔσης οὖν ὀψίας τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ τῇ μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων, καὶ τῶν θυρῶν κεκλεισμένων ὅπου ἦσαν οἱ μαθηταὶ συνηγμένοι διὰ τὸν φόβον τῶν Ἰουδαίων, ἦλθεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ ἔστη εἰς τὸ μέσον, καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· εἰρήνη ὑμῖν.
20 وَلَمَّا قَالَ هَذَا أَرَاهُمْ يَدَيْهِ وَجَنْبَهُ، فَفَرِحَ ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ إِذْ رَأَوْا ٱلرَّبَّ.
20 καὶ τοῦτο εἰπὼν ἔδειξεν αὐτοῖς τὰς χεῖρας καὶ τὴν πλευρὰν αὐτοῦ. ἐχάρησαν οὖν οἱ μαθηταὶ ἰδόντες τὸν Κύριον.
21 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ أَيْضًا: «سَلَامٌ لَكُمْ! كَمَا أَرْسَلَنِي ٱلْآبُ أُرْسِلُكُمْ أَنَا».
21 εἶπεν οὖν αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς πάλιν· εἰρήνη ὑμῖν. καθὼς ἀπέσταλκέ με ὁ πατήρ, κἀγὼ πέμπω ὑμᾶς.
22 وَلَمَّا قَالَ هَذَا نَفَخَ وَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱقْبَلُوا ٱلرُّوحَ ٱلْقُدُسَ.
22 καὶ τοῦτο εἰπὼν ἐνεφύσησε καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς· λάβετε Πνεῦμα Ἅγιον·
23 مَنْ غَفَرْتُمْ خَطَايَاهُ تُغْفَرُ لَهُ، وَمَنْ أَمْسَكْتُمْ خَطَايَاهُ أُمْسِكَتْ».
23 ἄν τινων ἀφῆτε τὰς ἁμαρτίας, ἀφίενται αὐτοῖς· ἄν τινων κρατῆτε, κεκράτηνται.
24 أَمَّا تُومَا، أَحَدُ ٱلِٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ، ٱلَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ ٱلتَّوْأَمُ، فَلَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَهُمْ حِينَ جَاءَ يَسُوعُ.
24 Θωμᾶς δὲ εἷς ἐκ τῶν δώδεκα, ὁ λεγόμενος Δίδυμος, οὐκ ἦν μετ᾽ αὐτῶν ὅτε ἦλθεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς.
25 فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ ٱلْآخَرُونَ: «قَدْ رَأَيْنَا ٱلرَّبَّ!». فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «إِنْ لَمْ أُبْصِرْ فِي يَدَيْهِ أَثَرَ ٱلْمَسَامِيرِ، وَأَضَعْ إِصْبِعِي فِي أَثَرِ ٱلْمَسَامِيرِ، وَأَضَعْ يَدِي فِي جَنْبِهِ، لَا أُومِنْ».
25 ἔλεγον οὖν αὐτῷ οἱ ἄλλοι μαθηταί· ἑωράκαμεν τὸν Κύριον. ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ἐὰν μὴ ἴδω ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτοῦ τὸν τύπον τῶν ἥλων, καὶ βάλω τὸν δάκτυλόν μου εἰς τὸν τύπον τῶν ἥλων, καὶ βάλω τὴν χεῖρά μου εἰς τὴν πλευρὰν αὐτοῦ, οὐ μὴ πιστεύσω.
26 وَبَعْدَ ثَمَانِيَةِ أَيَّامٍ كَانَ تَلَامِيذُهُ أَيْضًا دَاخِلًا وَتُومَا مَعَهُمْ. فَجَاءَ يَسُوعُ وَٱلْأَبْوَابُ مُغَلَّقَةٌ، وَوَقَفَ فِي ٱلْوَسْطِ وَقَالَ: «سَلَامٌ لَكُمْ!».
26 Καὶ μεθ᾽ ἡμέρας ὀκτὼ πάλιν ἦσαν ἔσω οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ Θωμᾶς μετ᾽ αὐτῶν. ἔρχεται ὁ Ἰησοῦς τῶν θυρῶν κεκλεισμένων, καὶ ἔστη εἰς τὸ μέσον καὶ εἶπεν· εἰρήνη ὑμῖν.
27 ثُمَّ قَالَ لِتُومَا: «هَاتِ إِصْبِعَكَ إِلَى هُنَا وَأَبْصِرْ يَدَيَّ، وَهَاتِ يَدَكَ وَضَعْهَا فِي جَنْبِي، وَلَا تَكُنْ غَيْرَ مُؤْمِنٍ بَلْ مُؤْمِنًا».
27 εἶτα λέγει τῷ Θωμᾷ· φέρε τὸν δάκτυλόν σου ὧδε καὶ ἴδε τὰς χεῖράς μου, καὶ φέρε τὴν χεῖρά σου καὶ βάλε εἰς τὴν πλευράν μου, καὶ μὴ γίνου ἄπιστος, ἀλλὰ πιστός.
28 أَجَابَ تُومَا وَقَالَ لَهُ: «رَبِّي وَإِلَهِي!».
28 καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Θωμᾶς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· ὁ Κύριός μου καὶ ὁ Θεός μου.
29 قَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «لِأَنَّكَ رَأَيْتَنِي يَا تُومَا آمَنْتَ! طُوبَى لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَلَمْ يَرَوْا».
29 λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· ὅτι ἑώρακάς με, πεπίστευκας· μακάριοι οἱ μὴ ἰδόντες καὶ πιστεύσαντες.
30 وَآيَاتٍ أُخَرَ كَثِيرَةً صَنَعَ يَسُوعُ قُدَّامَ تَلَامِيذِهِ لَمْ تُكْتَبْ فِي هَذَا ٱلْكِتَابِ.
30 Πολλὰ μὲν οὖν καὶ ἄλλα σημεῖα ἐποίησεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐνώπιον τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ, ἃ οὐκ ἔστι γεγραμμένα ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ τούτῳ·
31 وَأَمَّا هَذِهِ فَقَدْ كُتِبَتْ لِتُؤْمِنُوا أَنَّ يَسُوعَ هُوَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱبْنُ ٱللهِ، وَلِكَيْ تَكُونَ لَكُمْ إِذَا آمَنْتُمْ حَيَاةٌ بِٱسْمِهِ.
31 ταῦτα δὲ γέγραπται ἵνα πιστεύσητε ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστιν ὁ Χριστὸς ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ ἵνα πιστεύοντες ζωὴν ἔχητε ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 20:10 Augustine of Hippo, Tractates on the Gospel of John (Chapter XX — 10-29)

    Mary Magdalene had brought the news to His disciples, Peter and John, that the Lord was taken away from the sepulchre; and they, when they came thither, found only the linen clothes wherewith the body had been shrouded; and what else could they believe but what she had told them, and what she had herself also believed?

  2. Commentary 20:10 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of John (Homily LXXXVI)

    Full of feeling somehow is the female sex, and more inclined to pity. I say this, lest thou shouldest wonder how it could be that Mary wept bitterly at the tomb, while Peter was in no way so affected. For, "The disciples," it saith, "went away unto their own home"; but she stood shedding tears.

  3. Quotes verse 20:31 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book III, Chapter XVI)

    … and that this same suffered and rose again, as John, the disciple of the Lord, verifies, saying: "But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing ye might have eternal life in His name," --foreseeing these blasphemous systems which divide the Lord, as far as lies in their power, …

  4. Quotes verse 20:22 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XIII, Chapters 21–23)

    They are encouraged in this supposition by the fact that the Lord Jesus after His resurrection breathed on His disciples, and said, "Receive ye the Holy Spirit." From this they suppose that the same thing was effected in either case, as if the evangelist had gone on to say, And they became living souls.

  5. Quotes verse 20:17 Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures (Lecture VII)

    But lest any one from simplicity or perverse ingenuity should suppose that Christ is but equal in honour to righteous men, from His saying, I ascend to My Father, and your Father, it is well to make this distinction beforehand, that the name of the Father is one, but the power of His operation manifold.
