How many times did Jesus appear after his crucifixion?
The story of Jesus appearing to others after his crucifixion and resurrection differs from source to source:Mark's GospelMark's Gospel was the earliest written record and should therefore be the most accurate account. However, in its original form, it finished at verse 16:8, when the young man told the women that Jesus was risen, and they fled in terror telling no one. Jesus did not appear to anyone after his crucifixion and resurrection.The 'Long Ending' (there was also, at one stage, a 'Short Ending') was added much later to add the necessary resurrection appearances. Here Jesus appeared first to Mary Magdalene, then to "the two of them on the road" (either the two women of Matthew or the two men of Luke), then to the eleven as they sat at a meal - a total of three times.Matthew's GospelMatthew's Gospel says that Jesus appeared only once, to the eleven disciples at a mountain in Galilee, where he gave a parting speech. In this gospel there was no appearance in Jerusalem, so Jesus only appeared once, in Galilee.Luke's GospelLuke's Gospel says that Jesus appeared to the two men on the road to Emmaeus, then to the eleven at a meal in the upper room in Jerusalem, after which he led them out towards Bethany, where he was taken up bodily to heaven. In this gospel, Jesus appeared two times. There could be no further appearances, because he ascended to heaven on the same day as his resurrection.John's GospelJohn's Gospel says that Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene, then to ten disciples in an upper room, then eight days later to all eleven disciples in the same room, then to the disciples by the Sea of Galilee. In this gospel, Jesus appeared four times.Acts of the ApostlesActs of the Apostles, by the same author as Luke's Gospel, but written a little later, says that the risen Jesus was on earth for forty days and was seen by many.
How many times did Jesus pray to God before he was arrested?
Mark's Gospel, the first gospel to be written, divided the last twenty four hours in the life of Jesus into eight periods of three hours each. Mark has Jesus go to the Garden of Gethsemane at 9 pm, where his closest disciples, Peter, James and John, were not able to remain awake. "Could you not watch one hour?" Jesus asked. The process was repeated two more times and each time the disciples fell asleep. It was now midnight, and Jesus had prayed three times.

What Jewish holidays were Jesus and his disciples celebrating the night of his arrest?
In the synoptic gospels, Jesus and his disciples were celebrating the Jewish Passover on the night of his arrest; the Last Supper was their Seder meal. In John's Gospel, Jesus was arrested on the night before the Passover, thus instead of a detailed mention of the Last Supper, we have the account of Jesus washing their feet. The gospel says that Jesus was crucified on the day prior to the Passover, and makes greater use of Passover imagery than do the other gospels.

The gospel of Mark in the second gospel chronologically, and he may not have been one of the 12 apostles, but he certainly had a spiritual walk with Jesus. His mothers house was the place the disciples met after Jesus' resurrection. Some believe it was her house the last supper was eaten in with Jesus and his disciples. If this is so, Mark probably did know Jesus personally while he was on earth.

Why did Jesus go to Galilee?
It is only in Matthew's Gospel (26:32) and Mark's Gospel (14:28) that Jesus tells the disciples that he will see them in Galilee. Again in Matthew's Gospel (28:10) the risen Jesus tells the women to 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. In Matthew's Gospel, Jesus really did meet the disciples in a mountain in Galilee, just as he had told them he would. This is the one gospel that properly links Jesus' instruction to what happens later. 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 allows us to assume that Jesus might well have met the disciples there, even if the Gospel does not say so. However, the 'Long Ending' (verses 16:9-20) was subsequently added, and this removes any possibility of Jesus planning to meet the disciples in Galilee, since it portrays him as meeting them at a meal in Jerusalem, where he gave them a parting message. It would not have made sense in Luke's Gospel for Jesus to say that he would meet the disciples in Galilee because, after his resurrection, he met them in Jerusalem and was then taken bodily up into heaven on the very evening of his resurrection. Again, in John's Gospel it would have made little sense for Jesus to say that he would meet the disciples in Galilee because he met them twice in Jerusalem, although he later did meet them in Galilee.
