The Scriptures 1998

Luke 24:21-34 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

21. “We, however, were expecting that it was He who was going to redeem Yisra’ĕl. But besides all this, today is the third day since these matters took place.

22. “But certain women of ours, who arrived at the tomb early, also astonished us,

23. when they did not find His body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of messengers who said He was alive.

24. “And some of those with us went to the tomb and found it, as also the women had said, but they did not see Him.”

25. And He said to them, “O thoughtless ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

27. And beginning at Mosheh and all the Prophets, He was explaining to them in all the Scriptures the matters concerning Himself.

28. And they approached the village where they were going, and He seemed to be going on.

29. But they urged Him strongly, saying, “Stay with us, for it is toward evening, and the day has declined.” And He went in to stay with them.

30. And it came to be, when He sat at the table with them, having taken the bread, He blessed, and having broken, He was giving it to them.

31. And their eyes were opened and they recognised Him. And He disappeared from their sight.

32. And they said to each other, “Was not our heart burning within us as He was speaking to us on the way, and as He was opening the Scriptures to us?”

33. And rising up that same hour they returned to Yerushalayim, and found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,

34. saying, “The Master was truly raised, and has appeared to Shim‛on!”
