Luke 24:21-31

21 We were hoping that he was the one who would free Israel. What's more, this is now the third day since everything happened.
22 Some of the women from our group startled us. They went to the tomb early this morning
23 and didn't find his body. They told us that they had seen angels who said that he's alive.
24 Some of our men went to the tomb and found it empty, as the women had said, but they didn't see him."
25 Then Jesus said to them, "How foolish you are! You're so slow to believe everything the prophets said!
26 Didn't the Messiah have to suffer these things and enter into his glory?"
27 Then he began with Moses' Teachings and the Prophets to explain to them what was said about him throughout the Scriptures.
28 When they came near the village where they were going, Jesus acted as if he were going farther.
29 They urged him, "Stay with us! It's getting late, and the day is almost over." So he went to stay with them.
30 While he was at the table with them, he took bread and blessed it. He broke the bread and gave it to them.
31 Then their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. But he vanished from their sight.
