Luke 24:35-48

New International Version

³⁵ Then the two told what had happened on the way, and how Jesus was recognized by them when he broke the bread.^(A)

Jesus Appears to the Disciples

³⁶ While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”^(B)

³⁷ They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost.^{(C) 38} He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? ³⁹ Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see;^(D) a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

⁴⁰ When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. ⁴¹ And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” ⁴² They gave him a piece of broiled fish, ⁴³ and he took it and ate it in their presence.^(E)

⁴⁴ He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you:^(F) Everything must be fulfilled^(G) that is written about me in the Law of Moses,^(H) the Prophets^(I) and the Psalms.”^(J)

⁴⁵ Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. ⁴⁶ He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer^(K) and rise from the dead on the third day,^{(L) 47} and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name^(M) to all nations,^(N) beginning at Jerusalem.^{(O) 48} You are witnesses^(P) of these things.
