Johannes 20:10

10 Es gingen nun die Jünger wieder heim.

Johannes 20:10 Meaning and Commentary

John 20:10

Then the disciples
Peter and John, after they had seen and examined things, and satisfied themselves as much as they could:

went away again unto their own home;
or "to themselves", as in the original text, and so the Vulgate Latin reads it; not that the meaning is, that they had been out of their minds, and proper exercise of them, and now came to themselves; but they returned to their own company, to the rest of the disciples they left at home, who were as themselves. The Syriac renders it, (Nwhtkwdl) , "to their own place", and so the Arabic and Persic versions; the place from whence they came, and where the rest were assembled together, to pray, converse, and consult together, what was to be done at this juncture.

Johannes 20:10 In-Context

8 Dann ging nun auch der andere Jünger hinein, der zuerst zu der Gruft kam, und er sah und glaubte.

9 Denn sie kannten die Schrift noch nicht, daß er aus den Toten auferstehen mußte.

10 Es gingen nun die Jünger wieder heim.

11 Maria aber stand bei der Gruft, draußen, und weinte. Als sie nun weinte, bückte sie sich vornüber in die Gruft

12 und sieht zwei Engel in weißen Kleidern sitzen, einen zu dem Haupte und einen zu den Füßen, wo der Leib Jesu gelegen hatte.
