"And entering 3 into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, arrayed in a white robe; and they were amazed. 6 "And he saith unto them, Be not amazed: ye seek Jesus, the Nazarene, which hath been crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold, the place where they laid him! "But go, tell his disciples and Peter, He goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you. (8) "And they went out, and fled from the tomb; for trembling and astonishment had come upon them: and they said nothing to any one; for they were afraid.

LUKE. 1 I 2 FORASMUCH as many have taken in hand to draw up a narrative concerning those matters which have been 1fulfilled among us, "even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers (3 of the word, "it seemed good to me also, having traced the course of all things accurately from the first, to write 4 unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus; "that thou mightest know the certainty concerning the things 3 wherein thou wast instructed. (5 THERE was in the days of Herod, king of Judæa, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abijah : and he had a wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her 6 name was Elisabeth. "And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordi7 nances of the Lord blameless. "And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years. (8 Now it came to pass, while he executed the priest's (9) office before God in the order of his course, "according to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to enter into ΙΟ the temple of the Lord and burn incense. "And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at "And there appeared unto him an II the hour of incense. 1 Or, fully established 2 Gr. words. 4 Gr. advanced in their days. 3 Or, which thou wast taught by 5 Or, sanctuary A.

'And Zacharias was troubled when he saw him, and fear fell upon him. "But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: because thy supplication is heard, and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and 14 thou shalt call his name John. "And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth. "For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and he shall drink no wine nors 15 17) 19 2 Holy trong drink; and he shall be filled 3 with the Holy Chest, even from his mother's womb. 16 "And many of the children of Israel shall he turn unto the Lord their God. "And he shall go before his face in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to walk in the wisdom of the just; to make ready for the Lord a people 18 prepared for him. "And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years. "And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and I was sent to speak unto thee, and to bring 20 thee these good tidings. "And behold, thou shalt be silent and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall come to pass, because thou believedst not my 21 words, which shall be fulfilled in their season. "And the people were waiting for Zacharias, and they marvelled 5 while he tarried in the temple. "And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: and he continued making signs unto them, and remained dumb.
