1.35 Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples, ^1.36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God!" ^1.37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus. ' "^20.24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, wasn't with them when Jesus came. " '^20.25 The other disciples therefore said to him, "We have seen the Lord!"But he said to them, "Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe." ^20.26 After eight days again his disciples were inside, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, the doors being locked, and stood in the midst, and said, "Peace be to you."' "^21.4 But when day had already come, Jesus stood on the beach, yet the disciples didn't know that it was Jesus. " '^21.5 Jesus therefore said to them, "Children, have you anything to eat?"They answered him, "No." ^21.6 He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some."They cast it therefore, and now they weren\'t able to draw it in for the multitude of fish. ^21.7 That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It\'s the Lord!"So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he wrapped his coat around him (for he was naked), and threw himself into the sea.
