JMNT(i)
13 And now, look and consider! Two of them, on that same day, were progressively journeying into a village which is named Emmaus, being located at a distance of sixty stadia (= seven miles) from Jerusalem,
14 and they, themselves, kept on conversing with each other about all the things that had been coming about in step with one another (= had happened in conjunction).
15 And then it happened! In the midst of the [situation for] them to be in continued conversation and seeking together by progressive questioning and deliberation, Jesus Himself, upon drawing near, also began journeying together with them,
16 but their eyes continued being held in a strong grip (thus: restrained) [so as] not to recognize or to fully experience knowledge of Him.
17 So then He said to them, "What [are] these words which you continue tossing back and forth to each other (or: What [is] this you are saying as you exchange words with one another) while walking along?" And so they paused and stood still, with stern and gloomy faces (looking depressed).
18 So, giving a considered reply, the one named Cleopas said to Him, "Are you yourself temporarily lodging alone (by yourself) in Jerusalem and so you did not come to know about (or: As for you, are you the only person presently visiting Jerusalem that does not know) the things happening (or: which have taken place) in her in these days?"
19 And then He said to them, "Which (or: What sort of) things?" So they said to Him, "The things about (or: concerning) Jesus – the one from Nazareth – a Man who came to be a prophet, powerful in deed as well as word (or: able in work and expressed thought), before (in front of and in the sight and presence of) God and all the people;
20 "and how our chief (ranking) priests and rulers (or: leaders) turned Him over unto a sentence (or: judgment-effect) of death, and then crucified Him (executed Him on a stake).
21 "Yet we, ourselves, had been expecting that He is the One being now about to be progressively redeeming and thus liberating Israel, by payment of a ransom. But surely, to the contrary and besides all these things, this makes the third day since these things occurred.
