Luke 24:36-48

Common English Bible CEB

36 While they were saying these things, Jesus himself stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!"

37 They were terrified and afraid. They thought they were seeing a ghost.

38 He said to them, "Why are you startled? Why are doubts arising in your hearts?

39 Look at my hands and my feet. It's really me! Touch me and see, for a ghost doesn't have flesh and bones like you see I have."

40 As he said this, he showed them his hands and feet.

41 Because they were wondering and questioning in the midst of their happiness, he said to them, "Do you have anything to eat?"

42 They gave him a piece of baked fish.

43 Taking it, he ate it in front of them.

44 Jesus said to them, "These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you—that everything written about me in the Law from Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms must be fulfilled."

45 Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures.

46 He said to them, "This is what is written: the Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day,

47 and a change of heart and life for the forgiveness of sins must be preached in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

48 You are witnesses of these things.

36 While they were saying all this, Jesus appeared to them and said, "Peace be with you."

37 They thought they were seeing a ghost and were scared half to death.

38 He continued with them, "Don't be upset, and don't let all these doubting questions take over.

39 Look at my hands; look at my feet - it's really me. Touch me. Look me over from head to toe. A ghost doesn't have muscle and bone like this."

40 As he said this, he showed them his hands and feet.

41 They still couldn't believe what they were seeing. It was too much; it seemed too good to be true.

42 They gave him a piece of leftover fish they had cooked.

43 He took it and ate it right before their eyes.

44 Then he said, "Everything I told you while I was with you comes to this: All the things written about me in the Law of Moses, in the Prophets, and in the Psalms have to be fulfilled."

45 He went on to open their understanding of the Word of God, showing them how to read their Bibles this way.

46 He said, "You can see now how it is written that the Messiah suffers, rises from the dead on the third day,

47 and then a total life-change through the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed in his name to all nations - starting from here, from Jerusalem!

48 You're the first to hear and see it. You're the witnesses.
