18Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had said these things to her.
19When therefore it was evening, on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were locked where the disciples were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, "Peace be to you."
20When he had said this, he showed to them his hands and his side. The disciples therefore were glad when they saw the Lord.
21Jesus therefore said to them again, "Peace be to you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you."
22When he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit!
23Whoever`s sins you forgive, they are forgiven to them. Whoever`s sins you retain, they are retained."
24But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, wasn`t with them when Jesus came.
