the Holy Fathers had assembled all the science of the soul, with the Divine Spirit they examined all things Synodically, and inscribed the Divine and All Blessed Symbol (Creed), as if God Himself has written It.

St Peter & St John Witness The Empty Tomb Of Our Risen Lord Jesus Christ

Now on the first day of the week

Mary Magdalene went to the Tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the Tomb. Then she ran and went to Simon Peter, and to the other Disciple, whom Jesus Loved, and said to them: They have taken away the Lord out of the Tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him! Peter therefore went out, and the other Disciple, and they hastened to the Tomb. So they both ran together, and the other Disciple outran Peter and got to the Tomb first, and, stooping down, he looked in and saw the Linen Cloths lying there, but he did not enter.

Let

us praise as God of all Power the One Who rose on the Third Day, smashed the Gates of Hades and roused the age long dead from the grave, Who appeared to the Myrrhbearers, as it was His Good Pleasure to say to them first of all: Rejoice! And so revealing Joy to the Apostles, as alone Giver of Life. Therefore with Faith the Women proclaim the tokens of Victory to the Disciples. Hades groans, Death laments, the world exults and all rejoice together: for Thou, O Christ, HAST GRANTED
RESURRECTION TO ALL.

Then

Simon Peter arrived, following him, and he went into the Tomb; and he saw the linen Cloths lying there, and the Handkerchief that had been around His Head, not lying with the linen Cloths, but folded together in a place by itself.
