Altogether, Jesus appears to his disciples "throughout the 40 days" after his resurrection. He materializes various bodies and shows "himself alive to them by many convincing proofs," instructing them "about the Kingdom of God." - ACTS 1:3; 1 CORINTIANS 15:7.
Evidently while the apsotles are still in Galilee, Jesus directs them to return to Jerusalem. When meeting them in the city, he says: "Do not leave Jerusalem, but keep waiting for what the Father has promised, about which you heard from me; for John, indeed baptized with water, but you will be baptized with holy spirit not many days after this." - ACTS 1:4, 5.
