Luke 24:17-30

¹⁷Jesus said to them, “What are the two of you talking about as you walk?” They stood there looking sad.

¹⁸One of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only person in Jerusalem who does not know the things which have happened there these days?”

¹⁹Jesus said to them, “What things?” They answered him, “The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet, mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

²⁰and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death and crucified him.

²¹But we had confidence that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. Yes, and what is more, it is now the third day since all these things happened.

²²But also, some women of our company amazed us, having been at the tomb early in the morning.

²³When they did not find his body, they came, saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said that he was alive.

²⁴Some men who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said. But they did not see him.”

²⁵Jesus said to them, “O foolish men and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

²⁶Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things, and to enter into his glory?”

²⁷Then beginning from Moses and through all the prophets, Jesus interpreted to them the things concerning himself in all the scriptures.

²⁸As they approached the village to which they were going, Jesus acted as though he were going further.

²⁹But they compelled him, saying, “Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is almost over.” So Jesus went in to stay with them.

³⁰It happened that, when he had sat down with them to eat, he took the bread, blessed it, and breaking it, he gave it to them.
