Jesus Walks with Two Friends Luke 24 13 Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem. 14 They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. 15 As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; 16 but they were kept from recognizing him. 17 He asked them, What are you discussing together as you walk along? They stood still, their faces downcast. 18 One of them, named Cleopas, asked him, Are you only a visitor to Jerusalem and do not know the things that have happened there in these days? 19 What things? he asked. About Jesus of Nazareth, they replied. He was a prophet, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people. 20 The chief priests and our rulers handed him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified him; 21 but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place. 22 In addition, some of our women amazed us. They went to the tomb early this morning 23 but didn t find his body. They came and told us that they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive. 24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but him they did not see. 25 He said to them, How foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory? 27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself. 28 As they approached the village to which they were going, Jesus acted 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 and began to give it to them. 31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight. 32 They asked each other, Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us? 33 They got up and returned at once to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, assembled together 34 and saying, It is true! The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon. 35 Then the two told what had happened on the way, and how Jesus was recognized by them when he broke the bread.

The Bible Times Herald A Special Report on JESUS WALKS WITH TWO FRIENDS As two men were walking to a village called Emmaus, Jesus came up and walked along with them. The two men did not recognize that is was Jesus who had risen from the dead. Jesus asked them, What are you discussing together as you walk along? The men began to tell Jesus all that had happened in Jerusalem to a man named Jesus. They talked about how the chief priests and rulers had Jesus killed and how just that morning some women went to the tomb. It was empty! Jesus had risen from the dead. Jesus said to the two men, Didn t the Christ have to suffer these things and enter his glory. Then Jesus explained all the scriptures concerning himself. As they approached the village, Jesus acted as if he were going further. The two men asked Jesus to stay with them and so he did. When they were at the table, Jesus took the bread, gave thanks, broke it, and gave it to them. Then their eyes were opened and they realized they were with Jesus the whole time! Just then, Jesus disappeared. The two men found the eleven disciples and told them what had just happened. For more details, please read Luke 24:13-35in the Bible. QUESTIONS 1.
