" Receive the Holy Spirit. For those whose sins you forgive, they are forgiven; for those whose sins you retain, they are retained" - John 20:22

Just before Jesus said this, He breathed on them. This is only the second place where God breathes on man in Scripture, so we know this is significant. Jesus was creating His priesthood, with the power to forgive sins.

An amazing event in the Church.
