*
And when they found not his body ,
they came ,
saying ,
that they had also seen a vision of angels ,
which said that he was alive .
*
And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre ,
and found it even so as the women had said :
but him they saw not .
*
Then he said unto them ,
O fools ,
and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken :
*
Ought not Christ to have suffered these things ,
and to enter into his glory ?
*
And beginning at Moses and all the prophets ,
he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself .
*
And they drew nigh unto the village ,
whither they went :
and he made as though he would have gone further .
*
But they constrained him ,
saying ,
Abide with us :
for it is toward evening ,
and the day is far spent .
And he went in to tarry with them .
*
And it came to pass ,
as he sat at meat with them ,
he took bread ,
and blessed it ,
and brake ,
and gave to them .
*
And their eyes were opened ,
and they knew him ;
and he vanished out of their sight .
*
And they said one to another ,
Did not our heart burn within us ,
while he talked with us by the way ,
and while he opened to us the scriptures ?
*
And they rose up the same hour ,
and returned to Jerusalem ,
and found the eleven gathered together ,
and them that were with them ,
*
Saying ,
The Lord is risen indeed ,
and hath appeared to Simon .
*
And they told what things were done in the way ,
and how he was known of them in breaking of bread .
*
And as they thus spake ,
Jesus himself stood in the midst of them ,
and saith unto them ,
Peace be unto you .
*
But they were terrified and affrighted ,
and supposed that they had seen a spirit .
*
And he said unto them ,
Why are ye troubled ?
and why do thoughts arise in your hearts ?
*
Behold my hands and my feet ,
that it is I myself :
handle me ,
and see ;
for a spirit hath not flesh and bones ,
as ye see me have .
*
And when he had thus spoken ,
he shewed them his hands and his feet .
*
And while they yet believed not for joy ,
and wondered ,
he said unto them ,
Have ye here any meat ?
*
And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish ,
and of an honeycomb .
*
And he took it ,
and did eat before them .
*
And he said unto them ,
These are the words which I spake unto you ,
while I was yet with you ,
that all things must be fulfilled ,
which were written in the law of Moses ,
and in the prophets ,
and in the psalms ,
concerning me .
