Luke 24:25-34

25So he said to them, “You foolish people – how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

26Wasn’t it necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and enter into his glory?”

27Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them the things written about himself in all the scriptures.

28So they approached the village where they were going. He acted as though he wanted to go farther,

29but 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.

30When he had taken his place at the table with them, he took the bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.

31At this point their eyes were opened and they recognized him. Then he vanished out of their sight.

32They 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?”

33So they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. They found the eleven and those with them gathered together

34and saying, “The Lord has really risen, and has appeared to Simon!”
