This Week's Gospel: John 20: 19 – 31.
(30th-March-2008) 2nd Sunday of Easter, Year A

Eight days later, Jesus came.
This reading corresponds well with the two capita given. What is here clear is that Victor’s caput here unnaturally breaks the sequence of the text, so, not having seen the Victor codex manuscript, and following Sievers’ transcription, I am forced to conclude that the capita were not inserted into the text, but were marginal comments, and their positioning was on occasions a little imprecise. It would make better sense if the caput started two lines later in the text, at 230: 1, on page 333. That is where I start the text here.
The reading is harmonized primarily from John, with considerable input from Luke.

CLXXVII. Ubi Ihesus apparuit discipulis suis.
(Where Jesus appeared to His disciples.)

CLXXVIII. Ubi Ihesus iterum apparuit Thomæ.
(Where Jesus again appears to Thomas.)

229: 3b/ CLXXVII. Ubi Ihesus apparuit discipulis suis.

230: 1
Now, whilst they were speaking these things, when it was late the same day, the first of the week, and the doors were shut, where the disciples were gathered together, for fear of the Judeans,
2
Jesus came and stood in the midst of his disciples and said to them: Peace be to you. It is I: Fear not.
3
But they being troubled and frightened, supposed that they saw a spirit.
4
And he said to them: Why are you troubled, and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
5
See my hands and feet, that it is I myself. Handle, and see: for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as you see me to have.
6
And when he had said this, he shewed them his hands, feet and his side.

231: 1
But while they yet believed not and wondered for joy, he said:
Have you here any thing to eat?
2
And they offered him a piece of a broiled fish and a honeycomb. And when he had eaten before them, taking the remains, he gave to them.
3
And he said to them: These are the words which I spoke to you while I was yet with you, that all things must needs be fulfilled which are written in the law of Moses and in the prophets and in the psalms, concerning me.

232:1
Then he opened their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures.
2
And he said to them: Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer and to rise again from the dead, the third day, and that penance and remission of sins should be preached in his name, unto all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
3
And you are witnesses of these things, and I send the promise of my Father upon you:
4
The disciples therefore were glad, when they saw the Lord.
5
He said therefore to them again: Peace be to you. As the Father hath sent me, I also send you.
6
When he had said this, he breathed on them; and he said to them:
Receive ye the Holy Ghost: whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them: and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained.

233: 1/ CLXXVIII. Ubi Ihesus iterum apparuit Thomæ.
Now Thomas, one of the twelve, who is called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
2
The other disciples therefore said to him: We have seen the Lord.
3
But he said to them: Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the place of the nails and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.
4
And after eight days, again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them.
5
Jesus cometh, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst and said: Peace be to you.
6
Then he said to Thomas: Put in thy finger hither and see my hands. And bring hither the hand and put it into my side. And be not faithless, but believing.
7
Thomas answered and said to him: My Lord and my God.
8
Jesus saith to him: Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen and have believed.

234: 1
Many other signs also did Jesus in the sight of his disciples, which are not written in this book.
2
But these are written, that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God: and that believing, you may have life in his name.
