“On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning,
\nwhile it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb.
\nSo she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them,
\n\u201cThey have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don\u2019t know where they put him.\u201d
\nSo Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb. They both ran, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and arrived at the tomb first; he bent down and saw the burial cloths there, but did not go in.
\nWhen Simon Peter arrived after him, he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths there,
\nand the cloth that had covered his head, not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place.
\nThen the other disciple also went in, the one who had arrived at the tomb first,
\nand he saw and believed. For they did not yet understand the Scripture that he had to rise from the dead.”<\/p>\n
