John 20:8

FaithThe resurrection

6 Simon Peter arrived just after him. He entered the tomb and saw the linen cloths lying there.

7 The cloth that had been around Jesus’ head was rolled up, lying separate from the linen cloths.

Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in. And he saw and believed.

9 For they still did not understand from the Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.

10 Then the disciples returned to their homes.
