Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, but he disappeared from their sight.
32
They said to each other, "Wasn't it like a fire burning in us when he talked to us on the road and explained the Scriptures to us?"
33
They got up at once and went back to Jerusalem, where they found the eleven disciples gathered together with the others
34
and saying, "The Lord is risen indeed! He has appeared to Simon!"
35
The two then explained to them what had happened on the road, and how they had recognized the Lord when he broke the bread.
36
While the two were telling them this, suddenly the Lord himself stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you."
37
They were terrified, thinking that they were seeing a ghost.
38
But he said to them, "Why are you alarmed? Why are these doubts coming up in your minds?
39
Look at my hands and my feet, and see that it is I myself. Feel me, and you will know, for a ghost doesn't have flesh and bones, as you can see I have."
40
He said this and showed them his hands and his feet.
41
They still could not believe, they were so full of joy and wonder; so he asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?"
