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.
25The other disciples therefore said to him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he said to them, "Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe."
26After eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being locked, and stood in the midst, and said, "Peace be to you."
27Then he said to Thomas, "Reach here your finger, and see my hands. Reach here your hand, and put it into my side. Don`t be faithless, but believing."
