Luke 24:36-47

The Reality of the Risen Jesus
36 And(A) as they were saying these things, He Himself stood among them. He said to them, “Peace(B) to you!” 37 But they were startled and terrified(C) and thought they were seeing a ghost.(D) 38 “Why are you troubled?”(E) He asked them. “And why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 Look at My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself!(F) Touch Me and see,(G) 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,[a] 43 and He took it and ate in their presence.
44 Then He told them, “These are My words(H) that I spoke to you while I was still with you—that everything written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets,(I) and the Psalms(J) must be fulfilled.” 45 Then He opened their minds(K) to understand(L) the Scriptures. 46 He also said to them, “This is what is written:[b] The Messiah would suffer and rise from the dead the third day,(M) 47 and repentance for[c] forgiveness of sins(N) would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations,(O) beginning at Jerusalem.(P)
