30. Joining them at the supper table, Jesus took some bread and gave thanks. Then he broke some off and gave it to them.
31. Just then the men were allowed to recognize him. But when they saw who he was, he disappeared.
32. They said to each other, “When he talked to us on the road, it felt like a fire burning in us. How exciting it was when he explained to us the true meaning of the Scriptures!”
33. So the two men got up then and went back to Jerusalem. There they found the followers of Jesus meeting together. The eleven apostles and the people with them
34. said, “The Lord really has risen from death! He appeared to Simon.”
35. Then the two men told what had happened on the road. They talked about how they recognized Jesus when he shared the bread with them.
36. While the two men were saying these things to the other followers, Jesus himself came and stood among them. He said to them, “Peace be with you.”
37. This surprised the followers. They were afraid. They thought they were seeing a ghost.
38. But Jesus said, “Why are you troubled? Why do you doubt what you see?
39. Look at my hands and my feet. It’s really me. Touch me. You can see that I have a living body; a ghost does not have a body like this.”
40. After Jesus told them this, he showed them his hands and his feet.
41. The followers were amazed and very, very happy to see that Jesus was alive. They still could not believe what they saw. He said to them, “Do you have any food here?”
