and that he appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve.
Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen.
And he brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas” (which, when translated, is Peter).
He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses whom God had already chosen—by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.
What I mean is this: One of you says, “I follow Paul”; another, “I follow Apollos”; another, “I follow Cephas”; still another, “I follow Christ.”
whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future—all are yours,
Don’t we have the right to take a believing wife along with us, as do the other apostles and the Lord’s brothers and Cephas?
