And he went outside and cried bitterly.

However, Kefa got up and ran to the tomb. Stooping down, he saw only the burial cloths and went home wondering what had happened.

saying, “It’s true! The Lord has risen! Shim‘on saw him!”

He took him to Yeshua. Looking at him, Yeshua said, “You are Shim‘on Bar-Yochanan; you will be known as Kefa.” (The name means “rock.”)

Shim‘on Kefa answered him, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the word of eternal life.

We have trusted, and we know that you are the Holy One of God.”

Shim‘on Kefa said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Yeshua answered, “Where I am going, you cannot follow me now; but you will follow later.”

“Lord,” Kefa said to him, “why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!”

So she came running to Shim‘on Kefa and the other talmid, the one Yeshua loved, and said to them, “They’ve taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they’ve put him!”

Then Kefa and the other talmid started for the tomb.

They both ran, but the other talmid outran Kefa and reached the tomb first.

Stooping down, he saw the linen burial-sheets lying there but did not go in.

Shim‘on Kefa and T’oma (his name means “twin”) were together with Natan’el from Kanah in the Galil, the sons of Zavdai, and two other talmidim.

Shim‘on Kefa said, “I’m going fishing.” They said to him, “We’re coming with you.” They went and got into the boat, but that night they didn’t catch anything.

However, just as day was breaking, Yeshua stood on shore, but the talmidim didn’t know it was he.
