tcent Luke:24:13-35

tcent@Luke:24:13 @ Now behold, that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.

tcent@Luke:24:14 @ And they were talking with each other about all these things that had happened.

tcent@Luke:24:15 @ While they talked and discussed, Jesus himself drew near and went with them.

tcent@Luke:24:16 @ But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.

tcent@Luke:24:17 @ And he said to them, »What is this conversation which you are exchanging with each other as you walk?« And they stood still, looking sad.

tcent@Luke:24:18 @ Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, »Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem and do not know the things that have happened there in these days?«

tcent@Luke:24:19 @ And he said to them, »What things?« And they said to him, »The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

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

tcent@Luke:24:21 @ But we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, it is the third day since all this happened.

tcent@Luke:24:22 @ In addition, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning,

tcent@Luke:24:23 @ and when they did not find his body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said he was alive.

tcent@Luke:24:24 @ Some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said; but him they did not see.«

tcent@Luke:24:25 @ And he said to them, »O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

tcent@Luke:24:26 @ Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and enter his glory?«

tcent@Luke:24:27 @ And beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he explained to them the things concerning himself in all the scriptures.

tcent@Luke:24:28 @ As they drew near the village to which they were going, he acted as though he would be going farther,

tcent@Luke:24:29 @ but they constrained him, saying, »Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is now far spent.« So he went in to stay with them.

tcent@Luke:24:30 @ When he was at the table with them, he took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.

tcent@Luke:24:31 @ Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him; and he vanished from their sight.

tcent@Luke:24:32 @ And they said to each other, »Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked with us on the road, while he opened to us the scriptures?«

tcent@Luke:24:33 @ So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and they found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,

tcent@Luke:24:34 @ saying, »The Lord has risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!«

tcent@Luke:24:35 @ Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread.
