Lucas 24:28 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 24:28

And they drew nigh unto the village
Of Emmaus, before they were aware; their conversation was so very agreeable, that the way did not seem tedious, nor the time long: whither they went:
where they intended to go, when they set out; this was the end of their journey; wherefore this village was not some intermediate place between Jerusalem and Emmaus: and he made as though he would have gone further;
when they were come to Emmaus, and to the house where the two disciples intended to make their abode that night: whether it was a public house, or an house of one of their friends, or one of their own, it matters not; Christ stopped not, nor attempted to go in with them, but stepped a few steps onward, taking his leave of them. The Ethiopic version renders it, "he began to pass by them": which carried in it an appearance as if he intended to have travelled further; and in it there was no fraud, dissimulation, or collusion: he would have gone some little way further, doubtless, had they not detained him; and he intended to stay with them, provided they should ask him, as he did, though not all night, which he never designed: the whole of it is nothing else but a piece of modesty, civility, and prudence; for guile was never found in his mouth.

26 ¿Acaso no profetizaron claramente que el Mesías tendría que sufrir todas esas cosas antes de entrar en su gloria?

27 Entonces Jesús los guió por los escritos de Moisés y de todos los profetas, explicándoles lo que las Escrituras decían acerca de él mismo.

28 Para entonces ya estaban cerca de Emaús y del final del viaje. Jesús hizo como que iba a seguir adelante,

29 pero ellos le suplicaron: «Quédate con nosotros esta noche, ya que se está haciendo tarde». Entonces los acompañó a la casa.

30 Al sentarse a comer,
tomó el pan y lo bendijo. Luego lo partió y se lo dio a ellos.
