Luke 24:36-43

Jesus Appears to His Disciples

³⁶ As they were talking about these things, _c Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, "Peace to you!" ³⁷ But they were _d startled and _e frightened and _f 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. _g 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, _h he showed them his hands and his feet. ⁴¹ And while they still disbelieved _i for joy and were marveling, _j he said to them, "Have you anything here to eat?" ⁴² They gave him a piece of broiled fish, ₁ ⁴³ and he took it and ate before them.
