As If his resurrection weren’t the ultimate gift, Jesus kept gifting his best friends with more; more of his presence, his love, his over-the-top proofs, his repeated teachings, his promises, his reassurances, etc. His three-year ministry with them was no bait-and-switch scheme, awaiting the right moment to abandon them, or waiting for them to trust him, then vanish. All that he communicated to his disciples before the cross continued unaltered afterward. Jesus knew well that his followers had had the stuffing knocked out of them by the events of Holy Week and he wanted each of them, including Peter, to know him post-resurrection just as they had known him before.
