Luke 24:36-49

Jesus Appears to His Disciples

³⁶ and as they are speaking these things, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith to them, 'Peace—to you;' ³⁷ and being amazed, and becoming affrighted, they were thinking themselves to see a spirit. ³⁸ And he said to them, 'Why are ye troubled? and wherefore do reasonings come up in your hearts? ³⁹ see my hands and my feet, that I am he; handle me and see, because a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me having.' ⁴⁰ And having said this, he shewed to them the hands and the feet, ⁴¹ and while they are not believing from the joy, and wondering, he said to them, 'Have ye anything here to eat?' ⁴² and they gave to him part of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb, ⁴³ and having taken, he did eat before them, ⁴⁴ and he said to them, 'These 'are' the words that I spake unto you, being yet with you, that it behoveth to be fulfilled all the things that are written in the Law of Moses, and the Prophets, and the Psalms, about me.' ⁴⁵ Then opened he up their understanding to understand the Writings, ⁴⁶ and he said to them—'Thus it hath been written, and thus it was behoving the Christ to suffer, and to rise out of the dead the third day, ⁴⁷ and reformation and remission of sins to be proclaimed in his name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem: ⁴⁸ and ye—ye are witnesses of these things. ⁴⁹ 'And, lo, I do send the promise of my Father upon you, but ye—abide ye in the city of Jerusalem till ye be clothed with power from on high.'
