10. Resurrection
We undoubtedly believe that in as much as it was impossible that the sorrows of death should retain in bondage the author of life a, that our Lord Jesus, crucified, died, and buried b, who descended into hell, did rise again for our justification, and destroying him who was author of death brought life again unto us that were subject to death and to the bondage of the same. We know that His resurrection was confirmed by the testimony of His very enemies c, by the resurrection of the dead whose sepulchers did open and they did arise and appeared to many within the city of Jerusalem d. It was also confirmed by the testimony of angels and by the senses and judgments of His apostles and of others e, who had conversation and did eat and drink with Him after His resurrection.
