Comparison of 1 Cor 15:1-8 with the Gospels
| 1 Cor 15 | Matthew | Mark | Luke/Acts | John |
| 3 that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; | 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou
shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. 27:50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. 26:56 But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. |
15:37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and
gave up the ghost. 15:28 And the scripture was fulfilled, 10 2: But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, |
23:46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud
voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave
up the ghost. 1:77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins, |
19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the
vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. |
| 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: | 27:59-60a And when Joseph had taken the body,
he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, And laid it in his own new tomb, 27:63 Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again. 28:7 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; |
15:45b-46a he gave the body to Joseph. And he
bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a
sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, 16:9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, |
Luke 23:50-52 … Joseph… went unto
Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and
laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone 24:1 Now upon the first day of the week 24:15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. 24:44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. 24:46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: |
19:38-42 Joseph of Arimathaea … took the
body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices … in the garden a new
sepulchre…There laid they Jesus 20:9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead. |
| 5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: | 28:16-17 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. | 16:9b he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, 16:14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, |
24:33 -36 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon. … And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them…. | 20:18 Mary Magdalene came and told the
disciples that she had seen the Lord, 20:19 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 the midst, and saith unto them, |
| 6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. | Acts 1:15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty,) | |||
| 7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. |
