Luke 24:24-31

24Some of our men ran out to see, and sure enough, his body was gone, just as the women had said.”

25Then Jesus said to them, “You foolish people! You find it so hard to believe all that the prophets wrote in the Scriptures.

26Wasn’t it clearly predicted that the Messiah would have to suffer all these things before entering his glory?”

27Then Jesus took them through the writings of Moses and all the prophets, explaining from all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

28By this time they were nearing Emmaus and the end of their journey. Jesus acted as if he were going on,

29but they begged him, “Stay the night with us, since it is getting late.” So he went home with them.

30As they sat down to eat, he took the bread and blessed it. Then he broke it and gave it to them.

31Suddenly, their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And at that moment he disappeared!
