Reaching The Tomb
Text: John 20: 6 - 8
REACHING THE TOMB
Peter reached the garden tomb shortly after John. Typical of Peter, he went straight into the tomb.
“Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb; and he saw the linen cloths lying there, and the handkerchief that had been around His head, not lying with the linen cloths, but folded together in a place by itself. Then the other disciple, who came to the tomb first, went in also; and he saw and believed.”

抵达坟墓
彼得在约翰抵达坟墓后也随后到达。彼得以他典型的方式,立刻进入坟墓里。
“西门彼得随后也到了,进坟墓里去,就看见细麻布还放在那里, 又看见耶稣的裹头巾没有和细麻布放在一处,是另在一处卷着。先到坟墓的那门徒也进去,看见就信了。”
