John 20:20-24

And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples then rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

So Jesus said to them again, “Peace be to you; just as the Father has sent Me, I also send you.”

And when He had said this, He breathed on them and *said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

If you forgive the sins of any, their sins have been forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they have been retained.”

But Thomas, one of the twelve, who was called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
