| 24 | Luke |
|
| 1 |
But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices which they had prepared. | The Resurrection of Jesus Lk.24.1-12 (the garden) -[ Lk.24.1-12 → ] - Mk.28.1-10, Mk.16.1-8, Jn.20.1-10 |
| 2 |
And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, | |
| 3 |
but when they went in they did not find the body of the Jesus. | |
| 4 |
While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel; | |
| 5 |
and as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead? | |
| 6 |
Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, | |
| 7 |
that the Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise." | |
| 8 |
And they remembered his words, | |
| 9 |
and returning from the tomb they told all this to the eleven and to all the rest. | |
| 10 |
Now it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told this to the apostles; | |
| 11 |
but these words seemed to them an idle tale, and they did not believe them. | |
| 12 |
| |
| 13 |
That very day two of them were going to a village named Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem, | The Walk to Emmaus Lk.24.13-35 (Emmaus) -[ Lk.24.13-35 → ] - Mk.16.12-13 |
| 14 |
and talking with each other about all these things that had happened. | |
| 15 |
While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them. | |
| 16 |
But their eyes were kept from recognizing him. | |
| 17 |
And he said to them, "What is this conversation which you are holding with each other as you walk?" And they stood still, looking sad. | |
| 18 |
Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, "Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?" | |
| 19 |
And he said to them, "What things?" And they said to him, "Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, | |
| 20 |
and how our chief priests and rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him. | |
| 21 |
But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since this happened. | |
| 22 |
Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning | |
| 23 |
and did not find his body; and they came back saying that they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive. | |
| 24 |
Some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said; but him they did not see." | |
| 25 |
And he said to them, "O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! | |
| 26 |
Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?" | |
| 27 |
And beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. | |
| 28 |
So they drew near to the village to which they were going. He appeared to be going further, | |
| 29 |
but they constrained him, saying, "Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is now far spent." So he went in to stay with them. | |
| 30 |
When he was at table with them, he took the bread and blessed, and broke it, and gave it to them. | |
| 31 |
And their eyes were opened and they recognized him; and he vanished out of their sight. | |
| 32 |
They said to each other, "Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the scriptures?" | |
| 33 |
And they rose that same hour and returned to Jerusalem; and they found the eleven gathered together and those who were with them, | |
| 34 |
who said, "The Lord has risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!" | |
| 35 |
Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread. | |
| 36 |
As they were saying this, Jesus himself stood among them | The Appearance to the Disciples Lk.24.36-49 (Jerusalem) -[ Lk.24.36-49 → ] - Mt.28.16-20, Mk.16.14-18, Jn.20.19-23, Ac.1.6-8 |
| 37 |
But they were startled and frightened, and supposed that they saw a spirit. | |
| 38 |
And he said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do questionings rise in your hearts? | |
| 39 |
See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; handle me, and see; for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see that I have." | |
| 41 |
And while they still disbelieved with joy, and wondered, he said to them, "Have you anything here to eat?" | |
| 42 |
They gave him a piece of broiled fish, | |
| 43 |
and he took it and ate before them. | |
| 44 |
Then he said to them, "These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled." | |
| 45 |
Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures, | |
| 46 |
and said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, | |
| 47 |
and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. | |
| 48 |
You are witnesses of these things. | |
| 49 |
And behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you; but stay in the city, until you are clothed with power from on high." | |
| 50 |
Then he led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands he blessed them. | The Ascension of Jesus Lk.24.50-53 (Bethany) - - Ac.1.6-11, Mk.16.19-20 |
| 51 |
While he blessed them, he parted from them, and was carried up into heaven. | |
| 52 |
And they returned to Jerusalem with great joy, | |
| 53 |
and were continually in the temple blessing God. | |
