THE MESSAGE
Peter and the other disciple left immediately for the tomb. They ran, neck and neck. The other disciple got to the tomb first, outrunning Peter. Stooping to look in, he saw the pieces of linen cloth lying there, but he didn't go in. Simon Peter arrived after him, entered the tomb, observed the linen cloths lying there, and the kerchief used to cover his head not lying with the linen cloths but separate, neatly folded by itself. Then the other disciple, the one who had gotten there first, went into the tomb, took one look at the evidence, and believed. No one yet knew from the Scripture that he had to rise from the dead. The disciples then went back home.
Simplified Cowboy Version
So Pete and the other cowboy headed out toward the grave at a high lope.

Contextual Overview

1And on the first [day] of the weeks, Mary the Magdalene comes early (there being yet darkness) to the tomb, and she sees the stone having been taken away out of the tomb; 2she runs, therefore, and comes to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus was cherishing, and says to them, "They took away the Lord out of the tomb, and we have not known where they laid Him." 3Peter, therefore, went forth, and the other disciple, and they were coming to the tomb,4and the two were running together, and the other disciple ran forward more quickly than Peter, and came first to the tomb, 5and having stooped down, sees the linen clothes lying, yet, indeed, he did not enter. 6Simon Peter, therefore, comes, following him, and he entered into the tomb, and beholds the linen clothes lying [there], 7and the napkin that was on His head not lying with the linen clothes, but apart, having been folded up, in one place; 8then, therefore, the other disciple who came first to the tomb entered also, and he saw and believed; 9for they did not yet know the Writing, that it was necessary for Him to rise again out of the dead. 10The disciples therefore went away again to their own friends,

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Peter therefore went forth,.... Out of the house where he was, upon hearing the account Mary gave:

and that other disciple; John, the Evangelist and Apostle; the rest of the disciples staying at home and continuing together, waiting to hear what account these two would bring:

and came to the sepulchre; to see with their own eyes what was done, and whether things were as Mary had related; and to make a more particular inquiry into, and examination of them.
