Mace(i)
13 The same day two of them went to a village named Emmaus, which was distant about threescore furlongs from Jerusalem:
14 and their conversation ran upon all that had lately happened.
15 now while they were conferring and debating together, Jesus himself join'd them and walk'd along with them.
16 but their eyes were affected so as not to discern who he was.
17 and he said to them, what is the subject of your debate in the way, and why do you look so sad?
18 one of them, Cleopas by name, reply'd, are you such a stranger in Jerusalem as not to know what has so lately happen'd there?
19 what about? said he. why, about Jesus the Nazarean, said they, who was a prophet, eminently recommended, by his doctrine and his works, to the approbation of God and of all the people;
20 and of his being deliver'd up by our chief priests and magistrates to be condemn'd to die, whom they actually crucified:
21 though we expected he would have been the Messiah, that was to deliver Israel: and besides all this, it is now three days since these things were done.
22 'tis true, some women of our company threw us into a surprize: for going to the sepulchre early in the morning,
23 and not finding his body there, they came to tell us, that they had seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.
24 whereupon some of us went to the sepulchre, and found matters just as the women had related; but him they did not see.
25 then Jesus said to them, how stupidly incredulous are you not to believe things that have been all predicted by the prophets!
26 was not the Messiah to have suffer'd thus, and after that enter into his glory?
27 then beginning at Moses he explain'd all the passages there, and in all the prophets, which related to himself.
28 and they drew nigh the village where they were going: and he seemed as if he would have pass'd on further.
29 but they press'd him, saying, stay with us, for it is late and begins to be dark. so he went in to tarry with them.
30 and as he was at table with them, he took bread, and gave thanks, then brake it and gave it to them;
31 when looking upon him more intently, they perceiv'd that it was Jesus. but he vanish'd out of sight.
32 Upon this, they said to one another, to what ardor did not our affections rise, while he talk'd with us by the way, and while he expounded to us the scriptures?
33 and immediately they set out, and return'd to Jerusalem, where they found the eleven, and the rest of their company, all assembled, who said,
34 the Lord is actually risen, and hath appeared to Simon.
35 Thereupon the two disciples related what had hapned on the road, and how they first discover'd who Jesus was at his breaking of bread.
