What Happened on the Road to Emmaus?
The Emmaus story appears in Luke 24:13-35. It occurs days after Christ's crucifixion, the same day the women brought spices to Jesus' tomb and found the stone rolled away and Jesus' body nowhere to be found.

When the women told the 11 apostles what they had found, and that two angels had spoken to them, reminding them of Christ's resurrection, the apostles did not believe them.

Later that same day, as Luke 24 reveals, two men are walking together on a road going to a village called Emmaus. The men are discussing all the events of the past few days, and we see that they are troubled; Luke's account tells us their faces are “downcast” (v. 17).


Jesus comes alongside them and listens to their conversation, but these men do not know it is Jesus. This lack of recognition is not necessarily their fault. Scripture tells us they were “kept from recognizing him” (v. 16).

When Jesus asks what they are discussing, the men explain their version of the past days' events, as well as their disappointment over their hopes, which are seemingly unfulfilled, and confusion about what the women had seen at the tomb.

Jesus expresses gentle rebuke, telling the men, “How foolish you are, and how outlet slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory” (v.25-26).

Then Jesus proceeds to explain the Old Testament stories, from Moses to the prophets, and how they all fully and completely point to Christ.

The men still do not realize they are speaking with Jesus, but they eagerly welcome this conversation. When they get to Emmaus, they invite this mystery companion to stay with them instead of continuing on in his journey, and Jesus agrees.

Finally, at the table, when Jesus gives thanks and breaks the bread with them, they recognize Him. Immediately, Jesus disappears, and they rush back to Jerusalem that very evening, find the 11 apostles, and tell them what happened.
