The Road to Emmaus
13 And behold, (A)two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was [a]about seven miles from Jerusalem. 14 And they were talking with each other about all these things which had taken place. 15 While they were talking and discussing, Jesus Himself approached and began traveling with them. 16 But (B)their eyes were prevented from recognizing Him. 17 And He said to them, “What are these words that you are exchanging with one another as you are walking?” And they stood still, looking sad. 18 One of them, named Cleopas, answered and said to Him, “Are You [b]the only one visiting Jerusalem and unaware of the things which have happened here in these days?” 19 And He said to them, “What things?” And they said to Him, “The things about (C)Jesus the Nazarene, who was a (D)prophet mighty in deed and word in the sight of God and all the people, 20 and how the chief priests and our (E)rulers delivered Him to the sentence of death, and crucified Him. 21 But we were hoping that it was He who was going to (F)redeem Israel. Indeed, besides all this, it is the third day since these things happened. 22 But also some women among us amazed us. (G)When they were at the tomb early in the morning, 23 and did not find His body, they came, saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said that He was alive. 24 Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just exactly as the women also had said; but Him they did not see.” 25 And He said to them, “O foolish men and slow of heart to believe in all that (H)the prophets have spoken! 26 (I)Was it not necessary for the [c]Christ to suffer these things and to enter into His glory?” 27 Then beginning [d]with (J)Moses and [e]with all the (K)prophets, He explained to them the things concerning Himself in all the Scriptures.

Witness of the Scripture
39 [a](A)You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is (B)these that testify about Me; 40 and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life. 41 (C)I do not receive glory from men; 42 but I know you, that you do not have the love of God in yourselves. 43 I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me; (D)if another comes in his own name, you will receive him. 44 How can you believe, when you (E)receive [b]glory from one another and you do not seek (F)the [c]glory that is from (G)the one and only God? 45 Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father; the one who accuses you is (H)Moses, in whom you have set your hope. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me, for (I)he wrote about Me. 47 But (J)if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”

First Passover—Cleansing the Temple
13 (A)The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus (B)went up to Jerusalem. 14 (C)And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. 15 And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables; 16 and to those who were selling (D)the doves He said, “Take these things away; stop making (E)My Father’s house a [a]place of business.” 17 His (F)disciples remembered that it was written, “(G)Zeal for Your house will consume me.” 18 (H)The Jews then said to Him, “(I)What sign do You show us [b]as your authority for doing these things?” 19 Jesus answered them, “(J)Destroy this [c]temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” 20 (K)The Jews then said, “It took (L)forty-six years to build this [d]temple, and will You raise it up in three days?” 21 But He was speaking of (M)the [e]temple of His body. 22 So when He was raised from the dead, His (N)disciples (O)remembered that He said this; and they believed (P)the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.
