The first to report the resurrection of Jesus were women, specifically Mary Magdalene and other women who went to the tomb.

In Matthew's Gospel, Jesus did not appear to the disciples in a room. His only appearance to them was in a mountain in Galilee. In Luke's Gospel, Jesus first appeared to just two disciples, Cleopas and (presumably) Peter, then to the eleven apostles in a room in Jerusalem. John's Gospel says that Jesus first appeared to just ten disciples in a room in Jerusalem. However, neither evangelist says whose house this room was in, nor how they came to have its use. Mark's Gospel originally recorded no appearances of the risen Jesus The "Long Ending" (verses 16:9-20), which was added much later, harmonises with Luke and John in having the apostles at a meal, but does not explain whose house this was.
