In a storefront church on a Jersey City, N.J., street, a man speaks in front of a camera, telling of a discovery 2,000 years ago.

He speaks of a woman, standing outside a tomb, crying. The woman sees two angels, who ask her why she cries. “They have taken away my Lord’s body! I don’t know where they have put him.”

There is a tremor in the man’s voice as he speaks the woman’s words. A dim light flickers on the walls. He describes how the woman turns, and sees a man, and asks him if he took her Lord’s body. Then Jesus says to her, “Mary!” And the woman recognizes him.

This is a new ABS translation in the making, a rendering of the 20th chapter of the Gospel of John into visual form, to be released in video format.
