Peter and Peter's Disappearance in the Gospel of Mark, Chapter 16, Verse 7
Peter's experience is similar to that of christ st he's released from prison during the feast of unleavened bread. He appears to a woman, much as christ appeared to women, but her report is not believed in the story of the gospels. Peter then reports the miracle that had occurred and instructs them to pass on the news to james and the brothers. There's a certain comedy to the way that this plays out, underlining something of the playfulness and unpredictability of the spirit. Much as christ's resurrection was followed by his departure, so peter's resurrection, like deliverance, is followed by his leaving scene.
