Exodus 14:21–15:1
(21) And when Moses had extended his hand over the sea, the Lord took it away by an intense burning wind, blowing throughout the night, and he turned it into dry ground. And the water was divided (22) And the sons of Israel went in through the midst of the dried sea. For the water was like a wall at their right hand and at their left hand (23) And the Egyptians, pursuing them, went in after them, along with all of the horses of Pharaoh, his chariots and horsemen, through the midst of the sea (24) And now the morning watch had arrived, and behold, the Lord, looking down upon the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of cloud, put to death their army (25) And he overturned the wheels of the chariots, and they were carried into the deep. Therefore, the Egyptians said: “Let us flee from Israel. For the Lord fights on their behalf against us. (26) And the Lord said to Moses: “Extend your hand over the sea, so that the waters may return on the Egyptians, over their chariots and horsemen. (27) And when Moses had extended his hand opposite the sea, it was returned, at first light, to its former place. And the fleeing Egyptians met with the waters, and the Lord immersed them in the midst of the waves (28) And the waters were returned, and they covered the chariots and horsemen of the entire army of Pharaoh, who, in following, had entered into the sea. And not so much as one of them was left alive (29) But the sons of Israel continued directly through the midst of the dried sea, and the waters were to them like a wall on the right and on the left (30) And so the Lord freed Israel on that day from the hand of the Egyptians (31) And they saw the Egyptians dead on the shore of the sea and the great hand that the Lord had exercised against them. And the people feared the Lord, and they believed in the Lord and in Moses his servant (1) Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and they said: “Let us sing to the Lord, for he has been gloriously magnified: the horse and the rider he has cast into the sea
Exodus 15:8-10, 12, 17
(8) And by the breath of your fury, the waters were gathered together. The flowing waves stood still. The abyss was gathered into the midst of the sea (9) The enemy said: ‘I will pursue and overtake them. I will divide the spoils. My soul will be filled. I will unsheathe my sword. My hand will put them to death. (10) Your breath blew, and the sea covered them. They were submerged like lead into the mighty waters (12) You extended your hand, and the earth devoured them (17) You shall lead them in and plant them, on the mountain of your inheritance, in your most firm dwelling place, which you have formed, O Lord, your sanctuary, O Lord, which your hands have made firm
John 20:1-2, 11-18
(1) Then on the first Sabbath, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and she saw that the stone had been rolled away from the tomb (2) Therefore, she ran and went to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and she said to them, “They have taken the Lord away from the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him. (11) But Mary was standing outside the tomb, weeping. Then, while she was weeping, she bowed down and gazed into the tomb (12) And she saw two Angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had been placed, one at the head, and one at the feet (13) They say to her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She said to them, “Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have placed him. (14) When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus (15) Jesus said to her: “Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you seeking?” Considering that it was the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you have moved him, tell me where you have placed him, and I will take him away. (16) Jesus said to her, “Mary!” And turning, she said to him, “Rabboni!” (which means, Teacher) (17) Jesus said to her: “Do not touch me. For I have not yet ascended to my Father. But go to my brothers and tell them: ‘I am ascending to my Father and to your Father, to my God and to your God.’ (18) Mary Magdalene went, announcing to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord, and these are the things that he said to me.
