Biblical Studies Press, 2005) ### The Resurrection **Principle**: God keeps His promises. [[#Verse 01.]] Now on the first day of the week, at early dawn, the women went to the tomb, taking the aromatic spices they had prepared.  [[#Verse 02.]] They found that the stone had been rolled away from the tomb,  [[#Verse 03.]] but when they went in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.  [[#Verse 04.]] While they were perplexed about this, suddenly two men stood beside them in dazzling attire.  [[#Verse 05.]] The women were terribly frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?  [[#Verse 06.]] He is not here, but has been raised! Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee,  [[#Verse 07.]] that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.”  [[#Verse 08.]] Then the women remembered his words,  [[#Verse 09.]] and when they returned from the tomb they told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.  [[#Verse 10.]] Now it was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told these things to the apostles.  [[#Verse 11.]] But these words seemed like pure nonsense to them, and they did not believe them.  [[#Verse 12.]] But Peter got up and ran to the tomb. He bent down and saw only the strips of linen cloth; then he went home, wondering what had happened. ### Jesus Walks the Road to Emmaus **Principle**: Walking with Jesus. [[#Verse 13.]] Now that very day two of them were on their way to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.  [[#Verse 14.]] They were talking to each other about all the things that had happened.  [[#Verse 15.]] While they were talking and debating these things, Jesus himself approached and began to accompany them  [[#Verse 16.]] (but their eyes were kept from recognizing him).  [[#Verse 17.]] Then he said to them, “What are these matters you are discussing so intently as you walk along?” And they stood still, looking sad.  [[#Verse 18.]] Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who doesn’t know the things that have happened there in these days?”  [[#Verse 19.]] He said to them, “What things?” “The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene,” they replied, “a man who, with his powerful deeds and words, proved to be a prophetbefore God and all the people;  [[#Verse 20.]] and how our chief priests and leaders handed him over to be condemned to death, and crucified him.  [[#Verse 21.]] But we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. Not only this, but it is now the third day since these things happened. [[#Verse 22.]] Furthermore, some women of our group amazed us. They were at the tomb early this morning,  [[#Verse 23.]] and when they did not find his body, they came back and said they had seen a vision of angels, who said he was alive.  [[#Verse 24.]] Then some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see him.”  [[#Verse 25.]] So he said to them, “You foolish people—how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!  [[#Verse 26.]] Wasn’t it necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and enter into his glory?” [[#Verse 27.]] Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them the things written about himself in all the scriptures. [[#Verse 28.]] So they approached the village where they were going. He acted as though he wanted to go farther, [[#Verse 29.]] but they urged him, “Stay with us, because it is getting toward evening and the day is almost done.” So he went in to stay with them. [[#Verse 30.]] When he had taken his place at the table with them, he took the bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.  [[#Verse 31.]] At this point their eyes were opened and they recognized him. Then he vanished out of their sight.  [[#Verse 32.]] They said to each other, “Didn’tour hearts burn within us while he was speaking with us on the road, while he was explaining the scriptures to us?”  [[#Verse 33.]] So they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. They found the eleven and those with them gathered together  [[#Verse 34.]] and saying, “The Lord has really risen, and has appeared to Simon!”  [[#Verse 35.]] Then they told what had happened on the road, and how they recognized him when he broke the bread. ### Jesus Makes a Final Appearance **Principle**: Jesus is the fulfillment of all things. [[#Verse 36.]] While they were saying these things, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”  [[#Verse 37.]] But they were startled and terrified, thinking they saw a ghost.  [[#Verse 38.]] Then he said to them, “Why are you frightened, and why do doubts arise in your hearts?  [[#Verse 39.]] Look at my hands and my feet; it’s me! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones like you see I have.”  [[#Verse 40.]] When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.  [[#Verse 41.]] And while they still could not believe it (because of their joy) and were amazed, he said to them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”  [[#Verse 42.]] So they gave him a piece of broiled fish,  [[#Verse 43.]] and he took it and ate it in front of them. ### Jesus’ Final Commission **Principle**: Jesus sends us to share His Good News with the world. [[#Verse 44.]] Then 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.”  [[#Verse 45.]] Then he opened their minds so they could understand the scriptures,  [[#Verse 46.]] and said to them, “Thus it stands written that the Christ would sufferand would rise from the dead on the third day,  [[#Verse 47.]] and repentance for the forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.  [[#Verse 48.]] You are witnesses of these things.  [[#Verse 49.]] And look, I am sending you what my Father promised. But stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.” ### Jesus’ Departure **Principle**: Jesus gives us a lasting joy. [[#Verse 50.]] Then Jesus led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands, he blessed them.  [[#Verse 51.]] Now during the blessing he departed and was taken up into heaven.  [[#Verse 52.]] So they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,  [[#Verse 53.]] and were continually in the temple courts blessing God. ## ==📖 Verse-by-Verse Commentary== ###### Overall. ###### Verse 01. ###### Verse 02. ###### Verse 03. ###### Verse 04. ###### Verse 05. ###### Verse 06. ###### Verse 07. ###### Verse 08. ###### Verse 09. ###### Verse 10. ###### Verse 11. ###### Verse 12. ###### Verse 13. ###### Verse 14. ###### Verse 15. ###### Verse 16. ###### Verse 17. ###### Verse 18. ###### Verse 19. ###### Verse 20. ###### Verse 21. ###### Verse 22. ###### Verse 23. ###### Verse 24. ###### Verse 25. ###### Verse 26. ###### Verse 27. ###### Verse 28. ###### Verse 29. ###### Verse 30. ###### Verse 31. ###### Verse 32. ###### Verse 33. ###### Verse 34. ###### Verse 35. ###### Verse 36. ###### Verse 37. ###### Verse 38. ###### Verse 39. ###### Verse 40. ###### Verse 41. ###### Verse 42. ###### Verse 43. ###### Verse 44. ###### Verse 45. ###### Verse 46. ###### Verse 47. ###### Verse 48. ###### Verse 49. ###### Verse 50. ###### Verse 51. ###### Verse 52. ###### Verse 53. ## 🤔 Interesting Facts / Historical and Cultural Insights - coming soon. %% PRIVATE NOTES (only I see this) Write down things that are not straight from commentary but interesting facts that ground the text in history. %% ## 🧠 Chapter Summary - coming soon. %% PRIVATE NOTES (only I see this) Write a short paragraph (3–5 sentences) summarizing what happens in this chapter. - What is the main event or teaching? - How does this chapter fit the book’s overall story? - What stands out immediately?
