Context of Luke 24:36

34The people there told the two disciples, ‘It is true! The Lord Jesus is alive again. He has appeared to Simon!’ 35Then the two disciples spoke to the whole group. They told what had happened to them on the road to their village. They told how they recognized Jesus when he broke the bread into pieces in their home. While they were still speaking like that, Jesus himself stood among them. He said to them, ‘Peace be with you.’ 37But the whole group was very surprised and afraid. They thought that they were seeing a spirit. 38Jesus said to them, ‘You should not be so afraid. You seem to have trouble in your minds about what you are seeing.
