Luke 24:39-53 ▼

39 See my hands and my feet, that I am He: feel me; and see, because a spirit has not flesh and bones, as you see me having.

41 And they still disbelieving from joy, and wondering, He said to them, Have you here any edible?

42 And they gave Him a piece of baked fish:

43 and taking it, He did eat in their presence.

44 And He said to them, These are my words which I spoke to you, being still with you, that it behooves all things which have been written concerning me in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and the Psalms, to be fulfilled.

45 Then He opened their mind, that they might understand the Scriptures.

46 And He said to them, As it has been written, That Christ must suffer, and rise from the dead on the third day;

47 and repentance unto remission of sins is to be preached in His name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

48 You are witnesses of these things.

49 And I send the promise of the Father upon you: and you tarry in the city, until you may be endued with power from on high.

50 And He led them out even unto Bethany; and having lifted up His hands, He blessed them.

51 And it came to pass, while He was blessing them, He departed from them, and was carried up into heaven.

52 And they returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

53 and were constantly in the temple, praising God.
