Jesus Christ » History of » Appears to two disciples who journey to the village of emmaus
And after these things He appeared in another form to two of them, as they were walking, going into the country; and they, going away, told it to the rest; neither did they believe them.
And, behold, two of them that very day were journeying to a village, the name of which was Emmaus, distant sixty furlongs from Jerusalem. And they were conversing with each other concerning all these things that had happened. And it came to pass, while they were conversing and reasoning together, that Jesus Himself, drawing near, was journeying with them; read more.
but their eyes were holden that they should not recognize Him. And He said to them, "What words are these which ye are exchanging one with another, as ye walk?" And they stood still, with sad faces. And one of them, Cleopas by name, said to Him, "Art Thou only a Stranger in Jerusalem, and knowest not the things that came to pass there in these days?" And He said to them, "What things?" And they said to Him, "The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a Prophet, mighty in deed and word, before God and all the people: and how the high priests and our rulers delivered Him up to the sentence of death, and crucified Him. But we were hoping that it was He Who was about to redeem Israel; yea, indeed, and besides all these things, it is now the third day since these things came to pass. Moreover, also, certain women of our company astonished us, having been early at the tomb; and, not finding His body, they came, saying that they had seen a vision of angels, who said that He was alive! And some of those with us went away to the tomb, and found it even so as the women said; but Him they saw not." And He said to them, "O inconsiderate and slow in heart to believe in all that the prophets spake! Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things, and enter into His glory?" And, beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, He thoroughly interpreted to them, in all the Scriptures, the things concerning Himself. And they drew near to the village whither they were going; and He acted as if He would go further. And they constrained Him, saying, "Abide with us; because it is toward evening, and the day has already declined." And He went in to abide with them. And it came to pass, as He was reclining at table with them, that, taking the bread, He blessed it; and, breaking, He was giving to them; and their eyes were opened, and they clearly recognized Him; and He vanished from them. And they said one to another, "Was not our heart burning within us, as He was talking with us in the way, as He was opening the Scriptures to us!" And, rising up that same hour, they returned to Jerusalem; and they found the eleven gathered together, and those with them, saying, "Truly the Lord arose, and appeared to Simon." And they were narrating the things that transpired in the way, and how He was made known to them in the breaking of the bread.
