The account of Jesus' rising from the dead is recorded in the Bible. Three days after his death, a few women first found his tomb empty. Then Jesus appeared in front of these women and his disciples, talking and eating with them. One of the disciples, Thomas, did not believe that Jesus was alive again until he actually touched Jesus' fatal wounds. In the following 40 days, many people witnessed Jesus who had returned from death until he ascended into Heaven. He sent forth the Holy Spirit to be with the people.
