And they (A)found the eleven and (B)those who were with them gathered together, 34 saying, “The Lord has risen indeed, and (C)has appeared to Simon!” 35 Then they told what had happened on the road, and (D)how he was known to them in (E)the breaking of the bread.

Jesus Appears to His Disciples

36 As they were talking about these things, (F)Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you!” 37 But they were (G)startled and (H)frightened and (I)thought they saw a spirit. 38 And he said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. (J)Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” 40 And when he had said this, (K)he showed them his hands and his feet. 41 And while they still disbelieved (L)for joy and were marveling, (M)he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish,[a] 43 and he took it and ate before them.

44 Then he said to them, (N)“These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, (O)that everything written about me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.” 45 Then (P)he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, 46 and said to them, “Thus (Q)it is written, (R)that the Christ should suffer and on the third day (S)rise from the dead, 47 and that (T)repentance for[b] the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed (U)in his name (V)to all nations, (W)beginning from Jerusalem.
