Emva kweSabatha, ekuseni ngosuku lokuqala lwesonto, uMariya waseMagadala nomunye uMariya bafika ukuzobona ithuna. Kwathi masinyane kwaba nokuzamazama okukhulu komhlaba, ngokuba ingelosi kaBaba wethu yehla ivela ezulwini, yagingqa itshe, yahlala phezu kwalo. Ukubonakala kwayo kwakunjengonyazi, nezingubo zayo zazimhlophe njengeqhwa. Abalindi bathuthumela ngokumesaba, baba njengabafileyo. Kodwa ingelosi yathi kubesifazane: “Ningesabi, ngokuba ngiyazi ukuthi nifuna uJesu owabethelwa esiphambanweni. Akakho lapha—uvukile, njengoba asho. Wozani, nibone indawo lapho ayelele khona. Hambani ngokushesha, nitshele abafundi bakhe: Uvukile kwabafileyo. Bhekani, uyanandulela eya eGalile; niyakumbona khona. Lalelani, nginitshelile.”

Ngakho bashiya ithuna ngokushesha, benokwesaba nentokozo enkulu, bagijima ukuyobikela abafundi bakhe.

Masinyane uJesu wabahlangabeza, wathi: “Sanibonani!” Beza kuye, babamba izinyawo zakhe, bamkhonza. Khona-ke uJesu wathi kubo: “Ningesabi. Hambani, nitshele abafowethu ukuba baye eGalile—bayakungibona khona.”

Indaba Yokufihla Yabalindi

Besesendleleni, abanye abalindi bangena emzini babikela abapristi abakhulu konke okwakwenzekile. Sebehlangene namadoda amakhulu benza icebo, banika amabutho imali eningi, bathi kuwo: “Yishoni ukuthi: Abafundi bakhe beza ebusuku bameba sisalele. Uma lokhu kufika kumbusi, siyakumncenga, siniphephise enkingeni.” Bayithatha imali, benza njengokutshelwa kwabo; le ndaba yasakazeka phakathi kwamaJuda kuze kube namuhla.

Umyalelo kaBaba Wethu Ezizweni Zonke

Khona-ke abafundi abayishumi nanye baya eGalile, entabeni lapho uJesu ayebayalele khona. Lapho bembona, bamkhonza, kodwa abanye bangabaza.

UJesu weza wathi kubo: “Lonke igunya ezulwini nasemhlabeni liphiwe mina. Ngakho hambani nenze izizwe zonke zibe abafundi, nibabhapathize egameni likaBaba, neleNdodana, nelikaMoya oNgcwele, ^a nibafundise ukugcina konke enginiyale ngakho. Khumbulani, nginani njalo, kuze kube sekupheleni kwenkathi.”
