John 20:12 in context

The verses around it, from John 20.

8 Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in. And he saw and believed.

9 For they still did not understand from the Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.

10 Then the disciples returned to their homes.

11 But Mary stood outside the tomb weeping. And as she wept, she bent down to look into the tomb,

12 and she saw two angels in white sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and the other at the feet.

13 “Woman, why are you weeping?” they asked. “Because they have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I do not know where they have put Him.”

14 When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there; but she did not recognize that it was Jesus.

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.”

16 Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).
