15 3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures, 15 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures, 15 5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. 15 6 Then he appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep. 15 7 Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles.
