John 20:4-9 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

⁴The two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first.

⁵He bent down and looked in at the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in.

          6Simon Peter arrived just after him. He entered the tomb and saw the linen cloths lying there.
          7The cloth that had been around Jesus’ head was rolled up, lying separate from the linen cloths.
          8Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in. And he saw and believed.
          9For they still did not understand from the Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.
