Luke 24:13–31

¹³And, lo, two of them were going on during that day to a village, distant sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, the name of which is Emmaus, ¹⁴and they were conversing with one another about all these things that have happened. ¹⁵And it came to pass in their conversing and reasoning together, that Jesus himself, having come nigh, was going on with them, ¹⁶and their eyes were holden so as not to know him, ¹⁷and he said unto them, ‘What are these words that ye exchange with one another, walking, and ye are sad?’ ¹⁸And the one, whose name was Cleopas, answering, said unto him, ‘Art thou alone such a stranger in Jerusalem, that thou hast not known the things that came to pass in it in these days?’ ¹⁹And he said to them, ‘What things?’ And they said to him, ‘The things about Jesus of Nazareth, who became a man—a prophet—powerful in deed and word, before God and all the people, ²⁰how also the chief priests and our rulers did deliver him up to a judgment of death, and crucified him; ²¹and we were hoping that he it is who is about to redeem Israel, and also with all these things, this third day is passing to-day, since these things happened.

²²‘And certain women of ours also astonished us, coming early to the tomb, ²³and not having found his body, they came, saying also to have seen an apparition of messengers, who say he is alive, ²⁴and certain of those with us went away unto the tomb, and found as even the women said, and him they saw not.’ ²⁵And he said unto them, ‘O inconsiderate and slow in heart, to believe on all that the prophets spake! ²⁶Was it not behoving the Christ these things to suffer, and to enter into his glory?’ ²⁷and having begun from Moses, and from all the prophets, he was expounding to them in all the Writings the things about himself. ²⁸And they came nigh to the village whither they were going, and he made an appearance of going on further, ²⁹and they constrained him, saying, ‘Remain with us, for it is toward evening,’ and the day did decline, and he went in to remain with them. ³⁰And it came to pass, in his reclining (at meat) with them, having taken the bread, he blessed, and having broken, he was giving to them, ³¹and their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, and he became unseen by them.
