Jesus Appears to His Disciples

Luke 24

36 f Now as they said these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, "Peace to you." 37 But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen g a spirit. 38 And He said to them, "Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 "Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself. h Handle Me and see, for a i spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see I have." 40 1 When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His feet. 41 But while they still did not believe j for joy, and marveled, He said to them, k "Have you any food here?" 42 So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish 2 and some honeycomb. 43 l And He took it and ate in their presence.

44 Then He said to them, m "These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me." 45 And n He opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures. 46 Then He said to them, o "Thus it is written, 3 and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, 47 "and that repentance and p remission of sins should be preached in His name q to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 "And r you are witnesses of these things. 49 s "Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city 4 of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high."
