A:
Only in Mark's Gospel (14:28) and Matthew's Gospel (26:32) does Jesus tell the disciples that he will see them in Galilee. In Mark's Gospel (16:7), the young man inside the tomb repeats the message that Jesus had previously given the disciples, to meet him in Galilee. Matthew's Gospel omits the account of the young man but, in Matthew 28:10, the risen Jesus tells the women to tell the disciples that he will see them in Galilee.
It is only in Matthew's Gospel that Jesus really did meet the disciples in a mountain in Galilee, just as he had told them he would. Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8 with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one; the 'Long Ending' (verses 16:9-20), which is much closer to Luke's Gospel, was added to Mark's Gospel much later and was therefore unknown to the author of Matthew. So, this author was following Mark's Gospel as closely as possible, and his addition of the resurrection appearances (28:9-10; 28:17-20) reflects this.

Why did Jesus go to Galilee?
Jesus went to Galilee to begin his ministry, fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah and spreading the message of salvation to the people in that region. Galilee was known for being a diverse and populous area, making it an ideal place to start his teachings and gather followers.
Where did Jesus walk with some of his disciples after his resurrection?
A:In Matthew's Gospel, Jesus met the two women as they walked, but only met the disciples at a mountain in Galilee and from there sent them forth to teach all nations. In Luke's Gospel, Jesus walked with the two of them on the road to Emmaeus. Afterwards, he met the disciples at an evening meal then walked with them towards Bethany, where he ascended to heaven on the evening of the day of his resurrection.In John's Gospel, Jesus met the disciples twice at a meal in Jerusalem, then by the Sea of Galilee. It does not seem that he walked any great distance with the disciples at all.Mark's Gospel is the interesting one. It was the first New Testament gospel and originally ended at verse 16:8 with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. So, originally Jesus did not even meet the disciples after his burial. The Long Ending was added much later, to add some much-needed resurrection appearances and to conform as closely as possible with Matthew and Luke. He appeared in another form to the "two of them" (Mark 16:12) and we can choose to understand the two either as the two women of Matthew or the two men of Luke. He then met the disciples at a meal, more or less in line with Luke but without the walk to Bethany and the ascension to heaven, and sent them forth to preach everywhere.
When the disciples first saw the resurrected Christ did they think that He was a spirit?
AnswerIn Matthew's Gospel, the only occasion that the disciples saw the risen Jesus was in the mountain in Galilee. It seems they believed that he was real, because Jesus had told the women to say to the disciples that they were to go to Galilee where he would meet them. Nevertheless, after they saw Jesus, some believed and some doubted. Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and the fled, telling no one. In this original account, the disciples did not see the resurrected Jesus. The "Long Ending" (verses 16:9-25) was added much later to provide a resurrection story that more or less harmonised with both Matthew and Luke. First, he appeared to two of them - either the two women of Matthew or the two men of Luke. They went and told the disciples, who did not believe. Jesus then appeared to the disciples and upbraided them for not believing the other two, and told them to preach his gospel. There is no suggestion here in the "Long Ending "that they thought he was a spirit.In Luke's Gospel, Jesus appeared to the eleven at a meal on the evening of his resurrection, and they did at first think that he was a spirit.In John's Gospel, Jesus appeared to ten of the eleven at a meal and showed them his wounds. They did not think that he was a spirit and were glad to see him. However, Thomas was not present, and doubted. Eight days later, Jesus appeared to all eleven in the same room, and Thomas believed.
What happened when Jesus saw his disciples after rising from the dead?
In Luke's Gospel, Jesus appeared to all eleven apostles gathered together in a room (Luke 24:33) and showed them his hands and feet, then ate a piece of broiled fish and some honeycomb, so that they knew he was real. He then led the disciples out to the village of Bethany, where he was taken up bodily to heaven on the evening of his resurrection. In John's Gospel, Jesus first appeared to ten of the apostles gathered together in a room (John 20:19), without Thomas present (20:24), and showed them his hands and his side, so that they knew he was Jesus. He then breathed on them and gave them the Holy Ghost. Eight days later, he again appeared to all eleven apostles in the same room (20:26) and showed Thomas his wounds so that Thomas would also believe. Afterwards, Jesus appeared to the disciples at the Sea of Galilee.
How are the endings of Matthew and Mark similar?
A:Mark's Gospel was the first New Testament gospel to be written, but originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. Matthew's Gospel was largely based on Mark's Gospel, but is more spiritual and contains a longer ending with appearances of the risen Jesus. Mark's Gospel says the stone was already moved when the women arrived, and that they went inside the tomb and were met by a young man in white. Matthew's Gospel says when the women arrived, the stone was still in place, but there was an earthquake and an angel came down and moved the stone, telling the women that Jesus was risen.Some time in the second century, the 'Long Ending' was added to Mark (there was also at one stage a 'Short Ending'). This added appearances of the risen Jesus and more or less harmonises it with the endings of Matthew and Luke.In Mark 16:12, Jesus appeared to two of them as they walked. This could be the two women of Matthew's Gospel or the two men on the road to Emmaeus in Luke.In Mark 16:14, Jesus appeared to the eleven disciples at a meal. This is generally considered to be in the upper room, as in Luke, but arguably could be a meal the disciples were having when Jesus appeared to them in the mountain in Galilee (Matthew 28:16-17). Jesus then gave his parting instructions for the disciples to go forth and preach everywhere, just as he did in Matthew.
Where does the Bible describe the three times Jesus showed himself to the disciples after his he was risen from the dead?
A:In Matthew's Gospel, the women told the disciples to go into Galilee, where he would meet them. Later, Jesus met them in a mountain in Galilee, but just the once and there is no room in the account for Jesus to have met the disciples either before or after this meeting. Jesus told the disciples to disperse and begin preaching to all nations. In Luke's Gospel, Jesus met the disciples just once, but this time at a meal in Jerusalem on the evening of his resurrection, after which he took them out on the road to Bethany where he ascended bodily to heaven. There is no room in this account for Matthew's meeting in Galilee.In John's Gospel, Jesus met ten of the disciples at a meal in Jerusalem, with Thomas absent. A few days later, he met all eleven at a meal in the same room. Afterwards, he met them by the Sea of Galilee. This last meeting seems to indicate his farewell to the disciples, but it is also possible that he continued to meet the disciples.Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they told no one. This was the original gospel account, and until the 'Long Ending' was added much later, the risen Jesus seems not to have met the disciples. The Long Ending harmonises with Luke's Gospel by having Jesus meet the disciples once at a meal, after which he was taken up into heaven and they went forth and preached.In Acts of the Apostles, Jesus spent forty days on earth after his ressurection and was seen by many. He probably showed himself many times to the disciples.Across the entire New Testament, there are many more than three times that the risen Jesus showed himself to the disciples. It is in John's Gospel that he showed himself to them exactly three times.
Where did Jesus appear first to His disciples after the Resurrection?
Matthew: In Galilee.Luke: In Jerusalem.Matthew says that when Mary Magdalene and the other Mary visited the tomb an angel appeared to them and said: "Go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him" (xxviii, 7). As they ran to convey this intelligence, Jesus himself met them and repeated the command: "Go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me" (10). "Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And when they saw him they worshiped him" (16, 17).Luke (xxiv, 13-35) states that on the day of the resurrection Jesus journeyed to Emmaus, a village some distance from Jerusalem, with Cleopas and his companion. They did not recognize him until after their arrival there, when they returned at once to Jerusalem and informed the disciples. "As they thus spake Jesus himself stood in the midst of them" (36). He conversed with them for a time, after which "he led them out as far as to Bethany" where he took his final leave of them and ascended to heaven (38-51). Instead of bidding them go to Galilee, a three days journey from Jerusalem, as Matthew states, his command was "Tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high," which, according to Acts (ii, 1-13), was not until the day of Pentecost, seven weeks later.Matthew's narrative forbids the supposition of any meeting in Judea, while Luke's precludes the possibility of a meeting in Galilee. Regarding this discrepancy Dean Alford says: "We must be content to walk by faith, and not by sight" (Greek Testament, p. 905).Source; see link "Resurrection of Jesus" on leftSee also Related Questions on leftAnswerTo answer the question directly, the first place where Jesus appeared to His disciples was clearly in Jerusalem, where they were gathered behind closed doors for fear.
How is the account of Jesus on the Road to Emmaus different from the other gospel accounts?
A:The story of the risen Jesus meeting the two disciples on the road to Emmaus comes from Luke's Gospel (Luke 24:13-31). It is the only account in which Jesus simply disappears from sight, as the disciples talk to him. The author of John's Gospel usually took care not to directly contradict Luke, although he aften changed or added to his source gospel. Although John does not contain the account on the road to Emmaus, it could be added to this gospel without affecting its structure or integrity, except that John 21:14 says that the appearace to the disciples at the Sea of Galilee was only the third time he had appeared to the disciples but would have to be the fourth if there was an appearance on the road to Emmaus.Matthew's Gospel has a very different account of the resurrection appearances, with Jesus appearing only to the women and then to the disciples in a mountain in Galilee. The story of the appearance on the road to Emmaus is inconsistent with this gospel account.Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. This, the first gospel, originally had no appearances of the risen Jesus. The 'Long Ending' (Mark 16:9-20) was added much later and includes (Mark 16:12-13): "After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country. And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them." This is a good addition, as it could equally be interpreted as Jesus appearing to the two women of Matthew's Gospel or to the two disciples on the road to Emmaus, in luke's Gospel.
What were the disciples doing when they saw the resurrected Jesus?
Matthew says that the disciples saw the risen Jesus in a mountain in Galilee. The Gospel does not say what they were doing, when Jesus appeared, but when they saw him they worshipped him, but some doubted.Luke's Gospel says that the eleven were at a meal in a room in Jerusalem on the day of his resurrection, when Jesus appeared among them. He took them out towards Bethany, where he rose bodily to heaven.John's Gospel, which is now known to have been inspired by Luke's Gospel, says that Jesus appeared to ten of them at a meal in a room in Jerusalem. Eight days later, he appeared to all eleven, again at a meal in Jerusalem. They later saw him while fishing on the Sea of Galilee.Mark's Gospel , in its original form, ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they told no one, so in this Gospel the disciples never saw the resurrected Jesus. The "Long Ending" (verses 16:9-20) was added long afterwards to provide the necessary resurrection appearances and to more or less harmonise Mark with Matthew and Luke. In this version of Mark's Gospel, the disciples were also having a meal.
Why did Jesus appear the third time to his disciples?
A:In Matthew's Gospel, Jesus only appeared once to his disciples, at a mountain in Galilee, sending them to all parts of the world to teach his gospel.In Mark's Gospel, as originally written, the risen Jesus never appeared to any of the disciples, as it ended at verse 16:8 with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. The 'Long Ending' (verses 16:9-20) was added much later and says that Jesus appeared once to the disciples and was taken up into heaven.In Luke's Gospel, the risen Jesus appeared only once to the eleven disciples, whom he then took out on the road to Bethany, where he was taken up into heaven.It is in John's Gospel that Jesus appeared three times to the disciples. His first appearance was based on that in Luke, but was to only ten of the disciples, so as to exclude Thomas, who thereby did not receive the Holy Spirit from Jesus (John 20:2). The second appearance, also at a meal in the same room eight days later, allowed Thomas to be portrayed as 'doubting'. Elaine Pagels has described a strong theme of anti-Thomas sentiment in John's Gospel, and believes this reflects rivalry between Christian communities when John was being written in the early part of the second century. The third appearance was at the Sea of Galilee. This was probably written as a later appendix to the gospel, which seems formerly to have finished at verse 20:31. A further theme found in the Gospel of John is the comparison between Peter and the unknown 'disciple whom Jesus loved', and this ending allows further comparisons to be made, all to the detriment of Peter.
