13 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 And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself came up and walked along with them.
16 But their eyes were kept from recognizing Him.
17 He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?”
They stood still,
with sadness on their faces.
18 One of them, named Cleopas, asked Him, “Are You the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in recent days?”
19 “What things?” He asked.
“The events involving Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered. “This man was a prophet, powerful in speech and action before God and all the people.
20 Our chief priests and rulers delivered Him up to the sentence of death, and they crucified Him.
21 But we were hoping He was the One who would redeem Israel. And besides all this, it is the third day since these things took place.
22 Furthermore, some of our women astounded us. They were at the tomb early this morning,
23 but they did not find His body. They came and told us they had seen a vision of angels, who said that Jesus was alive.
24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had described. But Him they did not see.”
