Luke 24:13-27 ⓘ

24:13 Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem.

24:14 They talked with each other about all of these things which had happened.

24:15 While they talked and questioned together, Jesus himself came near, and went with them.

24:16 But their eyes were kept from recognising him.

24:17 He said to them, “What are you talking about as you walk, and are sad?”

24:18 One of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only stranger in Jerusalem who doesn’t know the things which have happened there in these days?”

24:19 He said to them, “What things?” They said to him, “The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people;

24:20 and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.

24:21 But we were hoping that it was he who would redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.

24:22 Also, certain women of our company amazed us, having arrived early at the tomb;

24:23 and when they didn’t find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

24:24 Some of us went to the tomb and found it just like the women had said, but they didn’t see him.”

24:25 He said to them, “Foolish people, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

24:26 Didn’t the Christ have to suffer these things and to enter into his glory?”

24:27 Beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.
