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.
