Luke 24:1-16 ▼

1 And on the first of the Sabbath, at the depth of the dawn, they came to the sepulcher, bearing the aromatics which they had prepared,

2 And they found the stone, having been rolled away from the sepulcher.

3 And coming in they found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

4 And it came to pass, while they were at a loss concerning this, and behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

5 and they being afraid, and turning their face towards the ground, they said to them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

6 He is not here, but He is risen. Remember how He spoke to you, being with you in Galilee,

7 Saying That it behooveth the Son of man to be delivered into the hands of sinners, and to be crucified, and to rise again on the third day.

8 And they remembered His words.

9 And having returned from the sepulcher, they proclaimed all these things to the eleven, and all the rest.

10 And Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James: and the other women with them spoke these things to the apostles.

11 And their words appeared before them like a dream; and they doubted them.

13 And behold, two of them on that day were journeying to a village, distant from Jerusalem sixty furlongs, to which was the name Emmaus:

14 and they were conversing with one another concerning all those things which had transpired.

15 And it came to pass, while they are talking and making inquiry, Jesus Himself also having come nigh, journeyed along with them:

16 and their eyes were held so as not to recognize Him.
