1But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared. (太28:1; 可16:1; 路23:56; 约20:1)2And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb, (太27:60; 可15:46)3but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.4While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel. (约20:12; 徒1:10; 徒10:30)5And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? (路24:37)6He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, (太17:22; 可9:30; 路9:22; 路9:44; 路24:44)7that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise.” (太20:19; 路9:22; 路13:33; 路24:6)8And they remembered his words, (约2:22; 约12:1)9and returning from the tomb they told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest. (约20:18)10Now it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told these things to the apostles, (太27:56; 可15:40; 路8:3)11but these words seemed to them an idle tale, and they did not believe them. (可16:11; 可16:16)12But Peter rose and ran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths by themselves; and he went home marveling at what had happened. (约19:40; 约20:3)
On the Road to Emmaus
13That very day two of them were going to a village named Emmaus, about seven miles[1] from Jerusalem, (可16:12)14and they were talking with each other about all these things that had happened.15While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them.16But their eyes were kept from recognizing him. (路9:45; 路18:34; 路24:31; 约20:14; 约21:4)17And he said to them, “What is this conversation that you are holding with each other as you walk?” And they stood still, looking sad.18Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?”19And he said to them, “What things?” And they said to him, “Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, (太21:11; 徒2:22; 徒7:22)20and how our chief priests and rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him. (路23:13; 路23:35; 约3:1; 约7:26; 约7:48; 约12:42; 徒2:23; 徒3:17; 徒4:5; 徒4:8; 徒5:30; 徒13:27; 林前2:8; 帖前2:15)21But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened. (路1:68; 路24:7; 彼前1:18)22Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning, (路24:1)23and when they did not find his body, they came back saying that they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive. (路24:3; 路24:4; 路24:9)24Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but him they did not see.” (路24:12; 约20:3)25And he said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!26Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?” (太1:17; 路9:26; 路24:7; 路24:44; 路24:46; 徒3:18; 來2:10; 來12:2; 彼前1:11)27And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself. (创3:15; 创12:3; 创22:18; 民21:9; 民24:17; 撒下7:12; 赛7:14; 赛9:6; 赛50:6; 赛52:13; 赛61:1; 耶23:5; 但7:13; 但9:24; 弥5:2; 亚6:12; 亚9:9; 亚12:10; 亚13:7; 约1:45; 约5:46; 徒8:35; 徒13:27)28So they drew near to the village to which they were going. He acted as if he were going farther, (可6:48)29but they urged him strongly, saying, “Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is now far spent.” So he went in to stay with them. (路9:12)30When he was at table with them, he took the bread and blessed and broke it and gave it to them. (太14:19)31And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And he vanished from their sight. (路4:30; 路24:16)32They said to each other, “Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the Scriptures?” (诗39:3; 路24:45)33And they rose that same hour and returned to Jerusalem. And they found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together, (可16:13; 徒1:14; 徒17:3)34saying, “The Lord has risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!” (林前15:5)35Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread. (路24:30; 徒2:42)
Jesus Appears to His Disciples
36As they were talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you!” (可16:14; 约20:19)37But they were startled and frightened and thought they saw a spirit. (太14:26; 可6:49; 路21:9; 路24:5)38And he said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts?39See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” (约20:27; 约一1:1)40And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet. (约20:20)41And while they still disbelieved for joy and were marveling, he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?” (创45:26; 约21:5; 徒12:14)42They gave him a piece of broiled fish,[2]43and he took it and ate before them.44Then he said to them, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.” (路24:6; 路24:27)45Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, (伯33:16; 诗119:18; 路24:32; 徒16:14; 约一5:20)46and said to them, “Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, (太26:24; 路24:7; 路24:26; 约20:9)47and that repentance for[3] the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. (创12:3; 诗22:27; 赛2:2; 赛49:6; 何2:23; 玛1:11; 太28:19; 路2:32; 徒2:38; 徒4:12; 徒5:31; 徒10:37; 加3:8)48You are witnesses of these things. (约15:27; 徒1:8; 徒1:22; 徒2:32; 徒3:15; 徒5:32; 徒10:39; 徒10:41; 徒13:31; 林前15:15; 彼前5:1)49And behold, I am sending the promise of my Father upon you. But stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high.” (伯29:14; 诗132:9; 赛32:15; 路1:78; 约14:26; 徒1:4; 徒1:8; 徒2:16; 徒2:33; 弗1:13)
The Ascension
50And he led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands he blessed them. (太21:17; 约11:18; 徒1:12)51While he blessed them, he parted from them and was carried up into heaven. (可16:19)52And they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy, (太28:9; 路24:50; 约16:22)53and were continually in the temple blessing God. (路1:64; 路2:28; 徒2:46; 徒3:1; 徒5:21; 徒5:42)
