Luke 24:2-26

²and they found the stone having been rolled away from the tomb,

³and having gone in, they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

⁴And it came to pass, while they are perplexed about this, that lo, two men stood by them in glittering apparel,

⁵and on their having become afraid, and having inclined the face to the earth, they said to them, 'Why do ye seek the living with the dead?

⁶he is not here, but was raised; remember how he spake to you, being yet in Galilee,

⁷saying — It behoveth the Son of Man to be delivered up to the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and the third day to rise again.'

⁸And they remembered his sayings,

⁹and having turned back from the tomb told all these things to the eleven, and to all the rest.

¹⁰And it was the Magdalene Mary, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and the other women with them, who told unto the apostles these things,

¹¹and their sayings appeared before them as idle talk, and they were not believing them.

¹²And Peter having risen, did run to the tomb, and having stooped down he seeth the linen clothes lying alone, and he went away to his own home, wondering at that which was come to pass.

¹³And, lo, two of them were going on during that day to a village, distant sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, the name of which is Emmaus,

¹⁴and they were conversing with one another about all these things that have happened.

¹⁵And it came to pass in their conversing and reasoning together, that Jesus himself, having come nigh, was going on with them,

¹⁶and their eyes were holden so as not to know him,

¹⁷and he said unto them, 'What are these words that ye exchange with one another, walking, and ye are sad?'

¹⁸And the one, whose name was Cleopas, answering, said unto him, 'Art thou alone such a stranger in Jerusalem, that thou hast not known the things that came to pass in it in these days?'

¹⁹And he said to them, 'What things?' And they said to him, 'The things about Jesus of Nazareth, who became a man — a prophet — powerful in deed and word, before God and all the people,

²⁰how also the chief priests and our rulers did deliver him up to a judgment of death, and crucified him;

²¹and we were hoping that he it is who is about to redeem Israel, and also with all these things, this third day is passing to-day, since these things happened.

²²'And certain women of ours also astonished us, coming early to the tomb,

²³and not having found his body, they came, saying also to have seen an apparition of messengers, who say he is alive,

²⁴and certain of those with us went away unto the tomb, and found as even the women said, and him they saw not.'

²⁵And he said unto them, 'O inconsiderate and slow in heart, to believe on all that the prophets spake!

²⁶Was it not behoving the Christ these things to suffer, and to enter into his glory?'
