As they heard this appointment, so definitely given, the disciples began to think of Christ's words to them foretelling His resurrection. But even now they did not rejoice. They could not cast off their doubt and perplexity. Even when the women declared that they had seen the Lord, the disciples would not believe. They thought them under an illusion.

Da disciplene hørte denne meddelelse, der blev givet på en så afgørende måde, begyndte de at overveje Kristi ord til dem, hvor han forudsagde sin opstandelse. Men selv nu frydede de sig ikke. De kunne ikke slippe deres tvivl og rådvildhed. Ikke engang da Kvinderne erklærede, at de havde set Herren, ville disciplene tro det. De mente, at de havde set et syn.
