Emmaus Road


Luke 24
Calling of the Fishermen 13-And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.
14-And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
15-And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
16-But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
17-And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
18-And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
19-And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
20-And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
21-But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
22-Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
23-And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
24-And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.

Luke 24
28-And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.
29-But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
30-And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
31-And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

Mark 16
13-And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them.

Luke 24
33-And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
34-Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
35-And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.
