Although the two people walking from Jerusalem to Emmaus were unaware that the stranger that joined them was Jesus, their hearts were comforted by His words and explanation about the fulfillment of the scriptures. As they neared their destination, evening was approaching and they invited the stranger to join them in something to eat. When Jesus blessed the bread, their eyes were opened and for the first time they realized they were in the presence of Jesus who had risen from the tomb. With that, Jesus disappeared and the two knew they had to share the good news with the disciples and others in Jerusalem. [Reflection is based on the Bible Reference – Luke 24:28-32]
