John

John 20:15–16

¹⁵“Woman, why are you weeping?” Jesus asked. “Whom are you seeking?”

Thinking He was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried Him off, tell me where you have put Him, and I will get Him.”

¹⁶Jesus said to her, “Mary.”

She turned and said to Him in Hebrew,^c “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).
