33. That very hour they got up and returned to Jerusalem. They found the Eleven and those with them gathered together,
34. who said, “The Lord has certainly been raised, and has appeared to Simon! ”
35. Then they began to describe what had happened on the road and how He was made known to them in the breaking of the bread.
36. And as they were saying these things, He Himself stood among them. He said to them, “Peace to you! ”
37. But they were startled and terrified and thought they were seeing a ghost.
38. “Why are you troubled? ” He asked them. “And why do doubts arise in your hearts?
39. Look at My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself! Touch Me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have.”
40. Having said this, He showed them His hands and feet.
41. But while they still were amazed and unbelieving because of their joy, He asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat? ”
42. So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish,
43. and He took it and ate in their presence.
44. Then He told them, “These are My words that I spoke to you while I was still with you — that everything written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms must be fulfilled.”
45. Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.
