Saturday, April 23 : Holy Gospel according to Saint John 20,1-9.
And on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalen cometh early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre: and she saw the stone taken away from the sepulchre.
She ran therefore and cometh to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved and saith to them: They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre: and we know not where they have laid him.
Peter therefore went out, and the other disciple: and they came to the sepulchre.
And they both ran together: and that other disciple did outrun Peter and came first to the sepulchre.
And when he stooped down, he saw the linen cloths lying: but yet he went not in.
Then cometh Simon Peter, following him, and went into the sepulchre: and saw the linen cloths lying,
And the napkin that had been about his head, not lying with the linen cloths, but apart, wrapped up into one place.
Then that other disciple also went in, who came first to the sepulchre: and he saw and believed.
For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
