Bible: Luke 24:13-27
Jesus Walks the Road to Emmaus
24:13 Now 1 that very day two of them 2 were on their way to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles 3 from Jerusalem. 4 24:14 They 5 were talking to each other about all the things that had happened. 24:15 While 6 they were talking and debating 7 these things, 8 Jesus himself approached and began to accompany them 24:16 (but their eyes were kept 9 from recognizing 10 him). 11 24:17 Then 12 he said to them, “What are these matters 13 you are discussing so intently 14 as you walk along?” And they stood still, looking sad. 24:18 Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, 15 “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who doesn’t know 16 the things that have happened there 17 in these days?” 24:19 He 18 said to them, “What things?” “The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene,” they replied, “a man 19 who, with his powerful deeds and words, proved to be a prophet 20 before God and all the people; 24:20 and how our chief priests and rulers handed him over 21 to be condemned to death, and crucified 22 him. 24:21 But we had hoped 23 that he was the one who was going to redeem 24 Israel. Not only this, but it is now the third day since these things happened. 24:22 Furthermore, some women of our group amazed us. 25 They 26 were at the tomb early this morning, 24:23 and when they did not find his body, they came back and said they had seen a vision of angels, 27 who said he was alive. 24:24 Then 28 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.” 29 24:25 So 30 he said to them, “You 31 foolish people 32 – how slow of heart 33 to believe 34 all that the prophets have spoken! 24:26 Wasn’t 35 it necessary 36 for the Christ 37 to suffer these things and enter into his glory?” 24:27 Then 38 beginning with Moses and all the prophets, 39 he interpreted to them the things written about 40 himself in all the scriptures.
