190:2.1 From the time of the [[morontia]] [[resurrection]] until the hour of his [[spirit]] [[ascension]] on high, [[Jesus]] made nineteen separate [[appearances]] in visible [[form]] to his [[believers]] on [[earth]]. He did not [[appear]] to his [[enemies]] nor to those who could not make [[spiritual]] use of his [[manifestation]] in visible form. His [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_189#189:4._DISCOVERY_OF_THE_EMPTY_TOMB first appearance] was to the five [[women]] at the [[tomb]]; [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_189#189:5._PETER_AND_JOHN_AT_THE_TOMB his second], to [[Mary Magdalene]], also at the [[tomb]].

190:2.2 The third [[appearance]] occurred about noon of this Sunday at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bethany Bethany]. Shortly after noontide, [[Jesus]]' oldest brother, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James], was standing in the [[garden]] of [[Lazarus]] before the empty [[tomb]] of the [[resurrected]] [[brother]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martha Martha] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_of_Bethany Mary], turning over in his [[mind]] the news brought to them about one hour previously by the [[messenger]] of [[David Zebedee|David]]. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] had always inclined to [[believe]] in his eldest [[brother]]'s [[mission]] on [[earth]], but he had long since lost [[contact]] with [[Jesus]]' [[work]] and had drifted into grave [[doubting]] regarding the later claims of [[the apostles]] that [[Jesus]] was [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_messianism the Messiah]. The whole [[family]] was startled and well-nigh confounded by the news brought by the [[messenger]]. Even as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] stood before [[Lazarus]]'s empty [[tomb]], [[Mary Magdalene]] arrived on the scene and was excitedly relating to the [[family]] her [[experiences]] of the early [[morning]] hours at the [[tomb]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_of_Arimathea Joseph]. Before she had finished, [[David Zebedee]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salome_(disciple) his mother] arrived. [[Ruth]], of course, believed the report, and so did [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jude,_brother_of_Jesus Jude] after he had talked with [[David Zebedee|David]] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salome_(disciple) Salome].

190:2.3 In the meantime, as they looked for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] and before they found him, while he stood there in the [[garden]] near the [[tomb]], he became aware of a near-by [[presence]], as if someone had [[touched]] him on the shoulder; and when he turned to look, he beheld the [[gradual]] [[appearance]] of a [[strange]] [[form]] by his side. He was too much [[amazed]] to [[speak]] and too [[frightened]] to flee. And then the [[strange]] [[form]] [[spoke]], saying: " [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jame_the_Just James], I come to call you to the [[service]] of [[the kingdom]]. Join [[earnest]] hands with your brethren and follow after me. " When [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] heard his [[name]] [[spoken]], he knew that it was his eldest [[brother]], [[Jesus]], who had addressed him. They all had more or less [[difficulty]] in [[recognizing]] the [[morontia]] [[form]] of [[the Master]], but few of them had any trouble [[recognizing]] his [[voice]] or otherwise identifying his [[charming]] [[personality]] when he once began to [[communicate]] with them.

190:2.4 When [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] [[perceived]] that [[Jesus]] was addressing him, he started to fall to his knees, [[exclaiming]], " My [[father]] and my [[brother]], " but [[Jesus]] bade him stand while he [[spoke]] with him. And they walked through the [[garden]] and talked for almost three minutes; talked over [[experiences]] of former days and [[forecast]] the [[events]] of the near [[future]]. As they neared the house, [[Jesus]] said, " [[Farewell]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James], until I greet you all [[together]]. "

190:2.5 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] rushed into the house, even while they looked for him at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bethphage Bethpage], [[exclaiming]]: " I have just seen [[Jesus]] and [[talked]] with him, [[visited]] with him. He is not [[dead]]; he has [[Resurrection|risen]]! He vanished before me, saying, `[[Farewell]] until I [[greet]] you all [[together]].' " He had scarcely finished [[speaking]] when [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jude,_brother_of_Jesus Jude] returned, and he retold the [[experience]] of meeting [[Jesus]] in the [[garden]] for the benefit of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jude,_brother_of_Jesus Jude]. And they all began to [[believe]] in the [[resurrection]] of [[Jesus]]. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] now announced that he would not return to [[Galilee]], and [[David Zebedee|David]] [[exclaimed]]: " He is seen not only by [[excited]] [[women]]; even stronghearted [[men]] have begun to see him. I [[expect]] to see him myself. "[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Acts_of_the_Apostles#Acts.10]

190:2.6 And [[David Zebedee|David]] did not long wait, for the fourth [[appearance]] of [[Jesus]] to [[mortal]] [[recognition]] occurred shortly before two o'clock in this very [[home]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martha Martha] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_of_Bethany Mary], when he [[appeared]] visibly before his [[earthly]] [[family]] and their [[friends]], twenty in all. [[The Master]] appeared in the open back door, saying: " [[Peace]] be upon you. Greetings to those once near me in the [[flesh]] and fellowship for my [[Siblings|brothers and sisters]] in [[the kingdom]] of heaven. How could you [[doubt]]? Why have you lingered so long before [[choosing]] to follow the [[light]] of [[truth]] with a whole [[heart]]? Come, therefore, all of you into the fellowship of the [[Spirit of Truth]] in [[the Father]]'s [[the Kingdom|kingdom]]. " As they began to recover from the first [[shock]] of their [[amazement]] and to move toward him as if to [[embrace]] him, he vanished from their [[sight]].

190:2.7 They all wanted to rush off to [[Jerusalem|the city]] to tell the [[doubting]] [[apostles]] about what had happened, but [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] restrained them. [[Mary Magdalene]], only, was [[permitted]] to return to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_of_Arimathea Joseph]'s house. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] forbade their publishing abroad the [[fact]] of this [[morontia]] [[visit]] because of certain things which [[Jesus]] had said to him as they [[conversed]] in the [[garden]]. But [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_the_Just James] never [[revealed]] more of his [[visit]] with the [[Resurrection|risen]] [[Master Son|Master]] on this day at the [[Lazarus]] [[home]] in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bethany Bethany].
