Luke 24:34
24:34 and
saying, “The Lord has really risen, and has appeared to Simon!”
Luke 24:18-33
24:18 Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him,
“Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who doesn’t know
the things that have happened there
in these days?”
24:19 He
said to them, “What things?” “The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene,” they replied, “a man
who, with his powerful deeds and words, proved to be a prophet
before God and all the people;
24:20 and how our chief priests and rulers handed him over
to be condemned to death, and crucified
him.
24:21 But we had hoped
that he was the one who was going to redeem
Israel. Not only this, but it is now the third day since these things happened.
24:22 Furthermore, some women of our group amazed us.
They
were at the tomb early this morning,
24:23 and when they did not find his body, they came back and said they had seen a vision of angels,
who said he was alive.
24:24 Then
some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see him.”
24:25 So
he said to them, “You
foolish people
– how slow of heart
to believe
all that the prophets have spoken!
24:26 Wasn’t
it necessary
for the Christ
to suffer these things and enter into his glory?”
24:27 Then
beginning with Moses and all the prophets,
he interpreted to them the things written about
himself in all the scriptures.
24:28 So they approached the village where they were going. He acted as though he wanted to go farther,
24:29 but they urged him, “Stay with us, because it is getting toward evening and the day is almost done.” So he went in to stay with them.
24:30 When he had taken his place at the table with them, he took the bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.
24:31 At this point their eyes were opened and they recognized him. Then he vanished out of their sight.
24:32 They said to each other, “Didn’t our hearts burn within us while he was speaking with us on the road, while he was explaining the scriptures to us?”
24:33 So they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. They found the eleven and those with them gathered together
