* The same day , as two of the disciples were traveling to a village named Emmaus , sixty furlongs from Jerusalem , * they conversed together about all these events . * While they were conversing and reasoning , Jesus himself joined them , and went along with them . * But their eyes were so affected that they did not know him . * And he said to them , * And one of them , named Cleopas , answered , Are you only a stranger in Jerusalem , and do you not know the things which have happened there so lately ? * said he . They answered , Concerning Jesus , the Nazarene , who was a prophet , powerful in word and deed , before God and all the people ; * how our chief priests and magistrates have delivered him to be condemned to death , and have crucified him . * As for us , we trusted that it had been he who should have redeemed Israel . Besides all this , today , being the third day since these things happened , * some women of our company have astonished us ; for having gone early to the tomb , * and not found his body , they came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels , who said that he is alive . * And some of our men went to the tomb , and found matters exactly as the women had related ; but him they saw not . * Then he said to them , lont @Luke:24:26 " /> * Then beginning with Moses , and proceeding through all the prophets , he explained to them all the passages relating to himself . * When they came near the village , whither they were traveling , he seemed as intending to go farther ; * but they constrained him , saying , Abide with us , for it grows late , and the day is far spent . And he went to abide with them . * While they were at table together , he took the loaf , and blessed and broke it , and distributed to them . * Then their eyes were opened , and they knew him ; and he disappeared . * And they said one to another , Did not our hearts burn within us , while he talked with us on the road , and expounded to us the scriptures ? * Immediately they arose and returned to Jerusalem , where they found the eleven , and the rest of their company assembled , * who said , The Master is actually risen , and has appeared to Simon . * These also recounted what had happened on the road , and how he was made known to them in breaking the loaf .
