And suddenly looking round they saw no one there except Jesus all alone beside them.
This happened three times; then the vessel was at once raised to heaven.
Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, but he vanished from their sight.
When the voice ceased, they found themselves alone with Jesus. And in those days they kept silence and told nobody anything of what they had seen.
Then a cloud came overshadowing them, and from the cloud a voice said, "This is my Son, the Beloved, listen to him."
As they went down the hill, he forbade them to tell anyone what they had seen, till such time as the Son of man rose from the dead.
