Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Remigius of Rheims
AD 533
This is more fully told by Luke; how when the Lord after the Resurrection appeared to the disciples, in their terror they thought they saw a spirit.
The disciples then, when they saw Him, knew the Lord; and worshipped Him, bowing their faces to the ground. And He their affectionate and merciful Master, that He might take away all doubtfulness from their hearts, coming to the m, strengthened them in their belief; as it follows, “And Jesus came andspake to them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.”.
What the Psalmist says of the Lord at His rising again, “Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands,” this the Lord now says of Himself, “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. "And here it is to be noted, that even before His resurrection the Angels knew that they were subjected to the man Christ. Christ then desiring that it should be also known to men that all power was committed to Him in heaven and in earth, sent preachers to make known the word of life to all nations; whence it follows, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations.”
