Résurrection et ascension de Jésus-Christ
V. 1-8: cf. (Mt 28:1-8. Lu 24:1-8. Jn 20:1, 2.) (Ps 16:8-10. Ac 2:23-32). 1 Co 15:1-28. Ac 26:8.1 Lorsque le sabbat fut passé, Marie de Magdala, Marie, mère de Jacques, et Salomé, achetèrent des aromates, afin d’aller embaumer Jésus. 2 Le premier jour de la semaine, elles se rendirent au sépulcre, de grand matin, comme le soleil venait de se lever. 3 Elles disaient entre elles: Qui nous roulera la pierre loin de l’entrée du sépulcre? 4 Et, levant les yeux, elles aperçurent que la pierre, qui était très grande, avait été roulée. 5 Elles entrèrent dans le sépulcre, virent un jeune homme assis à droite vêtu d’une robe blanche, et elles furent épouvantées. 6 Il leur dit: Ne vous épouvantez pas; vous cherchez Jésus de Nazareth, qui a été crucifié; il est ressuscité, il n’est point ici; voici le lieu où on l’avait mis. 7 Mais allez dire à ses disciples et à Pierre qu’il vous précède en Galilée: c’est là que vous le verrez, comme il vous l’a dit. 8 Elles sortirent du sépulcre et s’enfuirent. La peur et le trouble les avaient saisies; et elles ne dirent rien à personne, à cause de leur effroi.
V. 9-14: cf. (Mt 28:8-10. Lu 24:9-45. Jn 20:11-23).9 Jésus, étant ressuscité le matin du premier jour de la semaine, apparut d’abord à Marie de Magdala, de laquelle il avait chassé sept démons. 10 Elle alla en porter la nouvelle à ceux qui avaient été avec lui, et qui s’affligeaient et pleuraient. 11 Quand ils entendirent qu’il vivait, et qu’elle l’avait vu, ils ne le crurent point. 12 Après cela, il apparut, sous une autre forme, à deux d’entre eux qui étaient en chemin pour aller à la campagne. 13 Ils revinrent l’annoncer aux autres, qui ne les crurent pas non plus. 14 Enfin, il apparut aux onze, pendant qu’ils étaient à table; et il leur reprocha leur incrédulité et la dureté de leur cœur, parce qu’ils n’avaient pas cru ceux qui l’avaient vu ressuscité.
V. 15-20: cf. (Mt 28:16-20. Lu 24:46-49, Lu 50-53. Ac 1:1-12.) Jn 21:1-24. 1 Co 15:6, 1 7.15 Puis il leur dit: Allez par tout le monde, et prêchez la bonne nouvelle à toute la création.
16 Celui qui croira et qui sera baptisé sera sauvé, mais celui qui ne croira pas sera condamné. 17 Voici les miracles qui accompagneront ceux qui auront cru: en mon nom, ils chasseront les démons; ils parleront de nouvelles langues; 18 ils saisiront des serpents; s’ils boivent quelque breuvage mortel, il ne leur fera point de mal; ils imposeront les mains aux malades, et les malades, seront guéris. 19 Le Seigneur, après leur avoir parlé, fut enlevé au ciel, et il s’assit à la droite de Dieu. 20 Et ils s’en allèrent prêcher partout. Le Seigneur travaillait avec eux, et confirmait la parole par les miracles qui l’accompagnaient.
The Resurrection
(Matthew 28.1-8Luke 24.1-12John 20.1-10)1 After the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices to go and anoint the body of Jesus. 2 Very early on Sunday morning, at sunrise, they went to the tomb. 3-4 On the way they said to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?” (It was a very large stone.) Then they looked up and saw that the stone had already been rolled back. 5 So they entered the tomb, where they saw a young man sitting at the right, wearing a white robe—and they were alarmed.
6 “Don't be alarmed,” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is not here—he has been raised! Look, here is the place where he was placed. 7 Now go and give this message to his disciples, including Peter: ‘He is going to Galilee ahead of you; there you will see him, just as he told you.’”
8 So they went out and ran from the tomb, distressed and terrified. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.
AN OLD ENDING TO THE GOSPEL
Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene
(Matthew 28.9Matthew 10John 20.11-18)[ 9 After Jesus rose from death early on Sunday, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had driven out seven demons. 10 She went and told his companions. They were mourning and crying; 11 and when they heard her say that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they did not believe her.
Jesus Appears to Two Followers
(Luke 24.13-35)12 After this, Jesus appeared in a different manner to two of them while they were on their way to the country. 13 They returned and told the others, but these would not believe it.
Jesus Appears to the Eleven
(Matthew 28.16-20Luke 24.36-49John 20.19-23Acts 1.6-8)14 Last of all, Jesus appeared to the eleven disciples as they were eating. He scolded them, because they did not have faith and because they were too stubborn to believe those who had seen him alive. 15 He said to them, “Go throughout the whole world and preach the gospel to all people. 16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved; whoever does not believe will be condemned. 17 Believers will be given the power to perform miracles: they will drive out demons in my name; they will speak in strange tongues; 18 if they pick up snakes or drink any poison, they will not be harmed; they will place their hands on sick people, and these will get well.”
Jesus Is Taken Up to Heaven
(Luke 24.50-53Acts 1.9-11)19 After the Lord Jesus had talked with them, he was taken up to heaven and sat at the right side of God. 20 The disciples went and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and proved that their preaching was true by the miracles that were performed.]
ANOTHER OLD ENDING
[ 9 The women went to Peter and his friends and gave them a brief account of all they had been told. 10 After this, Jesus himself sent out through his disciples from the east to the west the sacred and everliving message of eternal salvation.]
