Luke 24:32-53. Jesus appeared to the Disciples back in Jerusalem and even ate a piece of broiled fish in their presence. He then explained the Scriptures written about him, and they understood for the first time, but they still had to wait for the power from the Holy Spirit. The Gospel of Luke ends with the Ascension, but that event is even better described in the Acts of the Apostles, also authored by Dr. Luke.

2 Kings 17. Hoshea was the last King over Israel, the defeated people of Israel were carried captive to Assyria, and Assyria then resettled Samaria with their own people.
