Luke 24:26-53

26Was it not necessary forG3780G1163 theG3588 ChristG5547 to sufferG3958 these thingsG3778 and thenG2532 to enterG1525G1519 HisG846 gloryG1391?” 27AndG2532 beginningG756 withG575 MosesG3475 andG2532 allG3956 theG3588 ProphetsG4396, He explainedG1329 to themG846 whatG3588 was written inG1722 allG3956 theG3588 ScripturesG1124 aboutG4012 HimselfG1438.

28AsG2532 they approachedG1448G1519 theG3588 villageG2968 whereG3757 they were headedG4198, HeG846 seemedG4364 to be goingG4198 fartherG4206. 29ButG2532 they pleaded with HimG3849G846G3004, “StayG3306 withG3326 usG1473, forG3754 it isG1510 nearlyG4314 eveningG2073 andG2532G2235 theG3588 dayG2250 is almost overG2827.”

SoG2532 He went inG1525 to stayG3306 withG4862 themG846. 30WhileG2532G1096G1722 HeG846 was recliningG2625 at the table withG3326 themG846, He tookG2983 breadG740, spoke a blessingG2127 andG2532 brokeG2806 it, and gaveG1929 it to themG846. 31ThenG1161 theirG846 eyesG3788 were openedG1272 andG2532 they recognizedG1921 Jesus—andG2532 HeG846 disappearedG1096G855 fromG575 their sight.

32

They askedG2036 each otherG240, “WereG1510 notG3780 ourG1473 heartsG2588 burningG2545 withinG1722 usG1473 asG5613 He spokeG2980 with usG1473 onG1722 theG3588 roadG3598 and openedG1272 theG3588 ScripturesG1124 to usG1473?” 33AndG2532 they got upG450 that veryG846 hourG5610 and returnedG5290 toG1519 JerusalemG2419.

There they foundG2147 theG3588 ElevenG1733 andG2532 thoseG3588 withG4862 themG846, gathered togetherG4867 34and sayingG3004, “TheG3588 LordG2962 has indeed risenG3689G1453 andG2532 has appearedG3708 to SimonG4613!”

35ThenG2532 the two toldG1834 what had happenedG3588 onG1722 theG3588 roadG3598, andG2532 howG5613 theyG846 had recognizedG1097 Jesus inG1722 theG3588 breakingG2800 of theG3588 breadG740.

36WhileG1161 theyG846 were describingG2980 theseG3778 events, Jesus HimselfG846 stoodG2476 amongG1722G3319 themG846 andG2532 saidG3004G846, “PeaceG1515 be with youG4771.” 37ButG1161 they were startledG4422 andG2532 frightenedG1096G1719, thinkingG1380 they had seenG2334 a spiritG4151.

38“WhyG5101 are youG1510 troubledG5015,” Jesus askedG2036G846, “andG2532 whyG1223G5101 do doubtsG1261 ariseG305 inG1722 yourG4771 heartsG2588? 39Look atG3708 MyG1473 handsG5495 andG2532 MyG1473 feetG4228. It isG1510 IG1473 MyselfG846. TouchG5584 MeG1473 andG2532 seeG3708—forG3754 a spiritG4151 does notG3756 haveG2192 fleshG4561 andG2532 bonesG3747, asG2531 you seeG2334 IG1473 haveG2192.” 40AndG2532 when He had saidG2036 thisG3778, He showedG1166 themG846 His handsG5495 andG2532 feetG4228.

41WhileG1161 theyG846 were still in disbeliefG2089G569 because ofG575 their joyG5479 andG2532 amazementG2296, He askedG2036 themG846, “Do you haveG2192 anythingG5100 hereG1759 to eatG1034?” 42SoG1161 they gaveG1929 HimG846 a pieceG3313 of broiledG3702 fishG2486,1 43andG2532 He tookG2983 it and ateG5315 it in front ofG1799 themG846.

44

Jesus saidG2036 toG4314 themG846, “TheseG3778 are theG3588 wordsG3056 I spokeG2980 toG4314 youG4771 while I wasG1510 stillG2089 withG4862 youG4771: EverythingG3956 mustG1163 be fulfilledG4137 thatG3588 is writtenG1125 aboutG4012 MeG1473 inG1722 theG3588 LawG3551 of MosesG3475, theG3588 ProphetsG4396, andG2532 the PsalmsG5568.” 45ThenG5119 He openedG1272 theirG846 mindsG3563 to understandG4920 theG3588 ScripturesG1124.

46AndG2532 He toldG2036 themG846, “ThisG3779 is what is writtenG1125: TheG3588 ChristG5547 will sufferG3958 andG2532 riseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498 on theG3588 thirdG5154 dayG2250, 47andG2532 inG1909 HisG846 nameG3686 repentanceG3341 andG15192 forgivenessG859 of sinsG266 will be proclaimedG2784 toG1519 allG3956 nationsG1484, beginningG756 inG575 JerusalemG2419. 48YouG4771 areG1510 witnessesG3144 of these thingsG3778.

49AndG2532 beholdG2400, IG1473 am sendingG649 theG3588 promiseG1860 ofG3588 MyG1473 FatherG3962 uponG1909 youG4771. ButG1161 remainG4771G2523 inG1722 theG3588 cityG4172 untilG2193 you have been clothed withG1746 powerG1411 fromG1537 on highG5311.”

50When Jesus had ledG1806 themG846 outG1854 as far asG2193 BethanyG963, He lifted upG1869 HisG846 handsG5495 and blessedG2127 themG846. 51WhileG2532G1096G1722 HeG846 was blessingG2127 themG846, He leftG1339G575 themG846 andG2532 was carried upG399 intoG1519 heavenG3772. 52AndG2532 theyG846 worshipedG4352 HimG846 and returnedG5290 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 withG3326 greatG3173 joyG5479, 53praisingG2127 GodG2316 continuallyG1510G1223G3956 inG1722 theG3588 templeG2411.
