and after Yeshua rose, they came out of the graves and went into the holy city, where many people saw them.

When the Roman officer and those with him who were keeping watch over Yeshua saw the earthquake and what was happening, they were awestruck and said, "He really was a son of God."

So they went and made the grave secure by sealing the stone and putting the guard on watch.

The guards were so terrified at him that they trembled and became like dead men.

So they left the tomb quickly, frightened yet filled with joy; and they ran to give the news to his talmidim.

Suddenly Yeshua met them and said, "Shalom!" They came up and took hold of his feet as they fell down in front of him.

Then Yeshua said to them, "Don't be afraid! Go and tell my brothers to go to the Galil, and they will see me there."

As they were going, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the head cohanim everything that had happened.

Then they met with the elders; and after discussing the matter, they gave the soldiers a sizeable sum of money

The soldiers took the money and did as they were told, and this story has been spread about by Judeans till this very day.

As he walked beside Lake Kinneret, he saw Shim‘on and Andrew, Shim‘on's brother, casting a net into the lake; for they were fishermen.

At once they left their nets and followed him.

Immediately he called them, and they left their father Zavdai in the boat with the hired men and went after Yeshua.

They entered K'far-Nachum, and on Shabbat Yeshua went into the synagogue and began teaching.

They were all so astounded that they began asking each other, "What is this? A new teaching, one with authority behind it! He gives orders even to the unclean spirits, and they obey him!"

They left the synagogue and went with Ya‘akov and Yochanan to the home of Shim‘on and Andrew.

Shim‘on's mother-in-law was lying sick with a fever, and they told Yeshua about her.

He healed many who were ill with various diseases and expelled many demons, but he did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who he was.

and when they found him, they said, "Everybody is looking for you."

They could not get near Yeshua because of the crowd, so they stripped the roof over the place where he was, made an opening, and lowered the stretcher with the paralytic lying on it.
