Luke 24:13-35
Luke
24
13
Now that very day two of them were on their way to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.
14
They were talking to each other about all the things that had happened.
15
While they were talking and debating these things, Jesus himself approached and began to accompany them
16
(but their eyes were kept from recognizing him).
17
Then he said to them, "What are these matters you are discussing so intently as you walk along?" And they stood still, looking sad.
18
Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, "Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who doesn't know the things that have happened there in these days?"
19
He said to them, "What things?" "The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene," they replied, "a man who, with his powerful deeds and words, proved to be a prophet before God and all the people;
20
and how our chief priests and rulers handed him over to be condemned to death, and crucified him.
21
But we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. Not only this, but it is now the third day since these things happened.
22
Furthermore, some women of our group amazed us. They were at the tomb early this morning,
23
and when they did not find his body, they came back and said they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive.
24
Then some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see him."
25
So he said to them, "You foolish people - how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!
26
Wasn't it necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and enter into his glory?"
27
Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them the things written about himself in all the scriptures.
28
So they approached the village where they were going. He acted as though he wanted to go farther,
29
but they urged him, "Stay with us, because it is getting toward evening and the day is almost done." So he went in to stay with them.
30
When he had taken his place at the table with them, he took the bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.
31
At this point their eyes were opened and they recognized him. Then he vanished out of their sight.
32
They said to each other, "Didn't our hearts burn within us while he was speaking with us on the road, while he was explaining the scriptures to us?"
33
So they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. They found the eleven and those with them gathered together
34
and saying, "The Lord has really risen, and has appeared to Simon!"
35
Then they told what had happened on the road, and how they recognized him when he broke the bread.
