"Some of our women amazed us too. Early this morning they went to the tomb.
23
But they didn't find his body. So they came and told us what they had seen. They saw angels, who said Jesus was alive.
24
Then some of our friends went to the tomb. They saw it was empty, just as the women had said. They didn't see Jesus' body there."
25
Jesus said to them, "How foolish you are! How long it takes you to believe all that the prophets said!
26
Didn't the Christ have to suffer these things and then receive his glory?"
27
Jesus explained to them what was said about himself in all the Scriptures. He began with Moses and all the Prophets.
28
The two men approached the village where they were going. Jesus acted as if he were going farther.
29
But they tried hard to keep him from leaving. They said, "Stay with us. It is nearly evening. The day is almost over." So he went in to stay with them.
30
He joined them at the table. Then he took bread and gave thanks. He broke it and began to give it to them.
31
Their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. But then he disappeared from their sight.
32
They said to each other, "He talked with us on the road. He opened the Scriptures to us. Weren't our hearts burning inside us during that time?"
