Luke 24:36-43

Listen to Luke 24:36-43

Jesus Appears to His Disciples

36 As they were talking about these things, 1Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you! ”
37 But they were 2startled and 3frightened and 4thought they saw a spirit.
38 And he said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts?
39 See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. 5Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have. ”
40 And when he had said this, 6he showed them his hands and his feet.
41 And while they still disbelieved 7for joy and were marveling, 8he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat? ”
42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, [a]
43 and he took it and ate before them.
