By Lester G. Osborn
And God blessed the seventh day and made it holy. -Genesis 2:3
Scriptures for Lesson Four
And they returned and prepared spices and
ointments, and rested the Sabbath day according to the commandment. Now upon the first day
of the week very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulcher, bringing the spices
which they had prepared; and certain others were with them. And they found the stone
rolled away from the sepulcher. And they entered in and found not the body of the Lord
Jesus. (Luke 23:56-25:3 KJ21)
And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James, and Salome
bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint Him. And very early in the morning on
the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulcher at the rising of the sun. (Mark
16:1-2 KJ21)
On the first day of the week came Mary Magdalene early,
when it was yet dark, unto the sepulcher and saw the stone taken away from the sepulcher.
(John 20:1 KJ21)
Now when Jesus had risen early the first day of the week, He appeared first to Mary
Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven devils. (Mark 16:9 KJ21)
And they, when they heard that He was alive and had been
seen by her, believed not. (Mark 16:11 KJ21)
At the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward
the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulcher.
(Matthew 28:1 KJ21)
And that day was the Preparation, and the Sabbath drew
near. (Luke 23:54 KJ21)
At the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward
the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulcher.
(Matthew 28:1 KJ21)
Then the same day at evening, being
the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for
fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in their midst and said unto them, "Peace be
unto you." (John 20:19 KJ21)
And she went and told those who had been with Him, as they mourned and wept. And they,
when they heard that He was alive and had been seen by her, believed not. After that, He
appeared in another form unto two of them as they walked and went into the country. And
they went and told it unto the rest, but neither did they believe them. Afterward He
appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat; and He upbraided them for their unbelief and
hardness of heart, because they believed not those who had seen Him after He had risen.
(Mark 16:10-14 KJ21)
And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not. (Luke 24:11
KJ21)
And as they thus spoke, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them and said unto them,
"Peace be unto you." But they were terrified and afraid, and supposed that they
had seen a spirit. (Luke 24:36-37 KJ21)
And after eight days the disciples were again within,
and Thomas was with them. Then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in their midst
and said, "Peace be unto you." (John 20:26 KJ21)
And after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John
his brother, and brought them up onto a high mountain apart. (Matthew 17:1 KJ21)
And it came to pass about eight days after these
sayings, He took Peter and John and James, and went up onto a mountain to pray. (Luke 9:28
KJ21)
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were
all with one accord in one place. (Acts 2:1 KJ21)
And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples
came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow, and
continued his speech until midnight. And there were many lights in the upper chamber where
they were gathered together. And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus,
having fallen into a deep sleep; and as Paul was long in preaching, he sank down with
sleep and fell down from the third floor and was taken up dead. And Paul went down and
fell on him, and embracing him, said, "Trouble not yourselves, for his life is in
him." When he therefore had come up again, and had broken bread and eaten and talked
for a long while, even until break of day, he departed. And they brought the young man
alive, and were not a little comforted. (Acts 20:7-12 KJ21)
And continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and
breaking bread from house to house, they ate their meat with gladness and singleness of
heart, (Acts 2:46 KJ21)
Upon the first day of the week, let every one of you
lay aside in store as God hath prospered him, so that there need be no gatherings when I
come. (1 Corinthians 16:2 KJ21)
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day, and I heard
behind me a great voice as of a trumpet, (Revelation 1:10 KJ21)
This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will
rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalms 118:24 KJ21)
(For He saith, "I have heard thee at an accepted
time, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee." Behold, now is the accepted
time! Behold, now is the day of salvation!) (2 Corinthians 6:2 KJ21)
but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD thy God.
In it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor
thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates. (Exodus 20:10
KJ21)
"If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on My holy day,
and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honorable, and shalt honor Him, not
doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words,
(Isaiah 58:13 KJ21)
Therefore the Son of Man is Lord also of the Sabbath." (Mark 2:28 KJ21)
