⁴ While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning^(A) stood beside them. ⁵ In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? ⁶ He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:^{(B) 7} ‘The Son of Man^(C) must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ ”^{(D) 8} Then they remembered his words.^(E)

⁹ When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.

²⁴ Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see Jesus.”^(A)

²⁵ He said to them, “How foolish you are, and how slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken! ²⁶ Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?”^{(B) 27} And beginning with Moses^(C) and all the Prophets,^(D) he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.^(E)

²⁸ As they approached the village to which they were going, Jesus continued on as if he were going farther. ²⁹ But they urged him strongly, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening; the day is almost over.” So he went in to stay with them.

³⁰ When he was at the table with them, he took bread, gave thanks, broke it^(F) and began to give it to them. ³¹ Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him,^(G) and he disappeared from their sight.

Jesus Appears to the Disciples

³⁶ While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”^(A)

³⁷ They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost.^{(B) 38} He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? ³⁹ Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see;^(C) a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

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