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 two of them, either the two women of Matthew's Gospel or the two men of Luke's Gospel, then to the eleven at a meal. In this second-century addition, there appear to have been fourteen eyewitnesses.
Matthew's GospelMatthew's Gospel says that Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene and the other Mary as they returned from the tomb, then to the eleven disciples at a mountain in Galilee, where he gave a parting speech. There were thirteen eyewitnesses.Luke's GospelLuke's Gospel says that Jesus first appeared to the two men on the road to Emmaeus. One man was Cleopas and the other may have been Peter. He then appeared to the eleven at a meal, before taking them out towards Bethany, where he was taken up bodily to heaven on the evening of the day of his resurrection. There were twelve or thirteen eyewitnesses, depending on the identiy of the second man on the road. His ascension to heaven that day precludes any more eyewitnesses. John's GospelJohn's Gospel says that Jesus first appeared to Mary Magdalene at the tomb, when she thought he was the gardener. He appeared to the disciples twice at a meal, then in Galilee. In this account, there were twelve eyewitnesses to his resurrection. Acts of the ApostlesIn this account, the ascension was moved forward to coincide with the Jewish day of the Pentecost, forty days after Easter. In this time, Jesus was seen by many. Paul1 Corinthians 15:3-8, which actually pre-dates Mark's Gospel, says that Jesus was seen first by Cephas (Peter), then the twelve, then by more than 500, most of whom were still alive, then by James and all the apostles, and finally by himself. However, Paul implied that the appearances were all of the same spiritual nature and no more real than the spiritual appearance he experienced. Thus, there were probably no witnesses to the risen Jesus in the flesh, but more than 500 witnesses to the spiritual Jesus arisen.Several eyewitnesses saw the car accident. Eyewitnesses to the man's murder were afraid to talk to the police.
They come up with the same thing another eyewitnesses
Mary Magdalene.
Jesus wasn't reincarnated He was resurrected and all disciples except Judas Iscariot saw Him. (Judas hanged himself after betraying Jesus).

The death and Resurrection of Christ is recorded in the Gospels of Matthew (Chapters 27-28), Mark (15-16), Luke (23-24), and John (19-20). It is also mentioned in 1 Corinthians 15. Answer2: FOUR REASONS WHY WE KNOW THAT JESUS WAS RESURRECTED (1) Jesus' resurrection happened "according to the Scriptures." God's Word foretold the resurrection. For example, David wrote that God's "loyal one" would not be left in the Grave. (Read Psalm 16:10.) On the day of Pentecost in the year 33, Peter explained that the "loyal one" was Jesus when he said: "[David] foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that neither was he forsaken in the Grave nor did his flesh see corruption."-Acts 2:23-27, 31 (2) Many eyewitnesses saw the resurrected Jesus. During the 40 days after his resurrection, Jesus appeared to his disciples in the garden near his tomb, on the road to the village of Emmaus, and in other places. (Luke 24:13-15) He spoke to individuals, including Peter, and to groups. Once, Jesus even appeared to a crowd of more than 500 people. We cannot ignore the fact that so many eyewitnesses saw the resurrected Jesus. (3) The disciples zealously preached about Jesus' resurrection. They were persecuted, they suffered, and some were killed because of their preaching work. Think about this: If Jesus had not been raised to life, would Peter have risked his life to preach about Christ's resurrection to the same people who hated Jesus and plotted his death? Peter and the other disciples were confident that Jesus was alive and was overseeing the preaching work. Also, Jesus' resurrection gave his followers the strong hope that they too would be resurrected. For example, Stephen died convinced that he would be resurrected.-Acts 7:55-60. (4) Jesus' resurrection confirms all that he taught. One Bible scholar wrote that if Christ was not resurrected, then Christians are foolish people who believe a big lie. Paul wrote that if Jesus were not resurrected, the preaching and the faith of Christians would be worthless. In fact, the Gospel accounts would simply be a sad story of a good and wise man who was killed by his enemies. But Jesus was resurrected, which confirms that everything he taught was true.-Read 1 Corinthians 15:14, 15, 20. Jesus said: "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life." (John 11:25) This promise of Jesus is guaranteed to come true. Jehovah has given Jesus the power to resurrect those who will rule in heaven and the billions who will live on earth. Jesus' sacrifice and resurrection guarantee that there will be no more death. So we can have the strength to endure any trial and even to face death with courage!
When Thomas heard about Jesus resurrection from other disciples, he said: "Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe."- John 20:25But when he saw the Lord, he said: " My Lord and my God"- John 20:28

The nurse is talking about Christ in the context of the Passion of Christ. She witnessed the wound on Christ's side after he was taken down from the cross.
The Christian answer is that the disciples saw the risen Jesus and believed in him. That Jesus told the apostles he was the messiah (Christ) and commanded them to preach his gospel.Various scholars have studied the early centuries of the Church and have tried to establish what its origins really were. For example, Mack (Who Wrote the New Testament: The Making of the Christian Myth) argues that Jesus was a wandering preacher who was not crucified at all. According to Mack, Jesus built up a following that he calls "the Jesus movement". He believes a breakaway group deified Jesus, creating a new cult that he calls "the Christ cult". The Christ cult began the tradition that Christ was crucified and resurrected, in the manner of many gods of the time. Others believe that the Christ cult preceded the Jesus movement and that Jesus of Nazareth was syncretised into the movement somewhat later.
