                          Now when He rose early on the first day of the week, He appeare first                                                      to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons.  She went                                                    and told those who had been with Him, as they mourned and wept.                                                            當耶穌在這一周的第一天清晨起來時，                                                                                                    祂首先向祂從她身上趕出了七個鬼的抹大拉的馬利亞(Mary Magdalene)顯現，                                  她去告訴那些與祂在一起的人，他們斯時正在哀傷哭泣。

        When you read the account of Jesus' death and resurrection in the Bible, do you ever stop to wonder why He appeared to His disciples and friends after the resurrection?  They already knew that the stone had been rolled away and that His body was not there.  He had already promised them that He would rise again on the third day.                                                                                                                         當你在聖經中，讀到耶穌的死和復活的記載時，你是否曾經停下來，想知道為什麼，祂在復活後，向祂的門徒和朋友顯現？ 他們已經知道石頭已經被滾開了，祂的身體也不在那裡。  耶穌已經向他們應許說，祂會在第三天復活。

         It is common belief that Jesus' multiple appearances were to answer the questions that existed among them and to cast out disbelief.  He appeared to Mary Magdalene to rule out the possibility of His body being stolen and to expound upon the scriptural prophecies that were now fulfilled.  He appeared to Thomas to prove that His broken, punctured body had indeed risen from the grave.  He also appeared to Peter to reestablish His love, even after being denied.                                                                      人們普遍認為耶穌的多次顯現，是為了回答，在他們之間存在的不信的問題，及消除他們的懷疑。 祂向抹大拉的馬利亞顯現，排除了人懷疑祂的身體被盜的可能性，並解釋了現已應驗的聖經預言。 耶穌向多馬顯現，證明祂破碎、刺穿的身體，確實已經從墳墓中復活了。 即使在被不信的人拒絕後，祂也向彼得顯現，重建祂對他的愛。

        These important visitation equipped the new messengers of the gospel with further knowledge and evidence of Jesus'  true identity as the Son of God.  If any had held the slightest doubts in their hearts before, they could not doubt now.  Jesus suffered the death of a criminal to rise as a King.  He is alive, and His love is great enough to conquer doubt.                                                                                                  這些重要的顯現，使福音的新的傳播使者，有了進一步了解和證明，耶穌作為上帝兒子的真實身份依據。 如果在之前，他們心裡還有一絲懷疑的話，那麼現在就完全清楚了。 耶穌經歷了疑似罪犯的死亡，然而現在却復活為國王。 祂仍活著，祂的大愛足以征服人的懷疑。

        Meditate on the miracle of His resurrection as you lift your prayers to Him today.                                    當你今天向主耶穌基督禱告時，默想祂復活的神蹟。

        Lord, just as You appeared to Your followers to equip them for                                                                    ministry, so, too, help my finite mind grasp the wonder of  Your                                                                  death as a criminal, and resurrection as a King.                                                                                            主啊，求祢正如向祢跟隨者所顯現的，裝備他們從事祢交代事工一樣，                                            懇求幫助我有限的頭腦也能領會祢疑似作為罪犯而死，                                                                        以及復活後真正作為君王的奇妙。
