Living_Oracles(i)
13 The same day, as two of the disciples were traveling to a village named Emmaus, sixty furlongs from Jerusalem,
14 they conversed together about all these events.
15 While they were conversing and reasoning, Jesus himself joined them, and went along with them.
16 But their eyes were so affected that they did not know him.
17 And he said to them, What subjects are these about which you confer together? and why are you dejected?
18 And one of them, named Cleopas, answered, Are you only a stranger in Jerusalem, and do you not know the things which have happened there so lately?
19 What things? said he. They answered, Concerning Jesus, the Nazarene, who was a prophet, powerful in word and deed, before God and all the people;
20 how our chief priests and magistrates have delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
21 As for us, we trusted that it had been he who should have redeemed Israel. Besides all this, today, being the third day since these things happened,
22 some women of our company have astonished us; for having gone early to the tomb,
23 and not found his body, they came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said that he is alive.
24 And some of our men went to the tomb, and found matters exactly as the women had related; but him they saw not.
25 Then he said to them, O thoughtless men, and backward to believe things which have been all predicted by the prophets!
26 Ought not the Messiah thus to suffer, and so to enter into his glory?
27 Then beginning with Moses, and proceeding through all the prophets, he explained to them all the passages relating to himself.
28 When they came near the village, whither they were traveling, he seemed as intending to go farther;
29 but they constrained him, saying, Abide with us, for it grows late, and the day is far spent. And he went to abide with them.
30 While they were at table together, he took the loaf, and blessed and broke it, and distributed to them.
31 Then their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he disappeared.
32 And they said one to another, Did not our hearts burn within us, while he talked with us on the road, and expounded to us the scriptures?
33 Immediately they arose and returned to Jerusalem, where they found the eleven, and the rest of their company assembled,
34 who said, The Master is actually risen, and has appeared to Simon.
35 These also recounted what had happened on the road, and how he was made known to them in breaking the loaf.
