Peter, when he entered the tomb, also saw the burial cloths — except he reveals they are neatly folded up, meaning it was unlikely Jesus' body was stolen, as Mary Magdalene feared, Kraus noted.

"And within the empty tomb, it was now John who saw the folded linens and believed in the resurrection of Jesus Christ," he said.
