Appearances Of Jesus After His Resurrection
Contributed by Dr. Larry Petton on Feb 19, 2022 (message contributor)
Jesus appeared at least ten times after His resurrection before He ascended into heaven. There were apparently many more appearances not recorded (see Jn. 20:30–31; 21:25).
1. He appeared to Mary Magdalene (Mk. 16:9–11; Jn. 20:11–18).
2. He appeared to the women running to tell the disciples about the empty tomb (Mt. 28:8–10).
3. He appeared to Peter, probably to assure him of his restoration (Lu. 24:34; 1 Co. 15:5).
4. He appeared to the two Emmaus disciples sometime in the early evening (Mk. 16:12; Lu. 24:13–42).
5. He appeared to the disciples with Thomas absent (Mk. 16:14; Lu. 24:36–43; Jn. 20:19–25).
6. One week later, He appeared to the disciples who had gone fishing (Jn. 20).
7. He appeared to 500 believers most of whom remain until now (1 Co. 15:6).
8. He appeared to the apostles (Mt. 28:16–20; Mk. 16:15–18).
9. He appeared to James, the Lord’s half-brother (1 Co. 15:7).
10. He appeared to the believers at His ascension (Mk. 16:19–20; Lu. 24:44–53; Ac. 1:3–12)
