1Now on the first day of the week, at very early dawn, they came back to the tomb bringing the fragrant spices which they had prepared.
2And they found the stone had been rolled away from the tomb,
3but when they went in, they did not find the body.[#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“went in”) which is understood as temporal; #Some manuscripts add “of the Lord Jesus”]
4And it happened that while they were perplexed about this, behold, two men in gleaming clothing stood near them.

10Now Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the others with them were telling these things to the apostles.
11And these words appeared to them as nonsense, and they refused to believe them.
12But Peter got up and ran to the tomb, and bending over to look, he saw only the strips of linen cloth, and he went away to his home wondering what had happened.[#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“got up”) has been translated as a finite verb; #Or “wondering to himself,” if the prepositional phrase modifies the following participle]
13And behold, on that same day, two of them were traveling to a village named Emmaus that was sixty stadia distant from Jerusalem,[#Literally “to which the name”; #A “stade” or “stadium” (plur. “stadia”) is about 607 ft (187 m)]
14and they were conversing with one another about all these things that had happened.
15And it happened that while they were conversing, and discussing, Jesus himself also approached and began to go along with them,[#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“approached”) has been translated as a finite verb; #*The imperfect tense has been translated as ingressive here (“began to go along with”)]
16but their eyes were prevented from recognizing him.
17And he said to them, “What are these matters that you are discussing with one another as you are walking along?” And they stood still, looking sad.[#*Here “as” is supplied as a component of the participle (“walking along”) which is understood as temporal]

19And he said to them, “What things?” So they said to him, “The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, a man who was a prophet, powerful in deed and word before God and all the people,
20and how our chief priests and rulers handed him over to a sentence of death, and crucified him.
21But we were hoping that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. But in addition to all these things, this is the third day since these things took place.[#Literally “he spends from which”]
22But also some women from among us astonished us, who were at the tomb early in the morning,
23and when they did not find his body, they came back saying they had seen even a vision of angels, who said that he was alive![#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“find”) which is understood as temporal]
24And some of those with us went out to the tomb and found it like this, just as the women had also said, but him they did not see.”[#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation]
25And he said to them, “O foolish and slow in heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!
26Was it not necessary that the Christ suffer these things and enter into his glory?”
27And beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, he interpreted to them the things concerning himself in all the scriptures.
28And they drew near to the village where they were going, and he acted as though he was going farther.
29And they urged him strongly, saying, “Stay with us, because it is getting toward evening, and by this time the day is far spent.” And he went in to stay with them.
30And it happened that when he reclined at the table with them, he took the bread and gave thanks, and after breaking it, he gave it to them.[#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“took”) has been translated as a finite verb; #*Here “after” is supplied as a component of the participle (“breaking”) which is understood as temporal; #*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation; #*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation]
31And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, and he became invisible to them.
32And they said to one another, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he was speaking with us on the road, while he was explaining the scriptures to us?”
33And they got up that same hour and returned to Jerusalem and found the eleven and those with them assembled,[#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“got up”) has been translated as a finite verb]
34saying, “The Lord has really been raised, and has appeared to Simon!”

36And while they were saying these things, he himself stood there among them.[#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“were saying”); #Some manuscripts add “and said to them, ‘Peace to you!’ ”]
37But they were startled and became terrified, and thought they had seen a ghost.[#*Here “and” is supplied because the two previous participles (“startled” and “terrified”) have been translated as finite verbs]
38And he said to them, “Why are you frightened? And for what reason do doubts arise in your hearts?
39Look at my hands and my feet, that I am I myself! Touch me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see that I have.”[#Literally “you see me having”]
40And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.[#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“had said”) which is understood as temporal; #*Literally “the”; the Greek article is used here as a possessive pronoun; #*Literally “the”; the Greek article is used here as a possessive pronoun]
41And while they were still disbelieving because of joy and were marveling, he said to them, “Do you have anything to eat here?”[#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“disbelieving”); #Literally “eatable”]
42So they gave him a piece of broiled fish,

45Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures,
46and said to them, “Thus it is written that the Christ would suffer and would rise from the dead on the third day,
47and repentance and the forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in his name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.[#Some manuscripts have “repentance for the forgiveness”; #The same Greek word can be translated “nations” or “Gentiles” depending on the context]
48You are witnesses of these things.
49And behold, I am sending out what was promised by my Father upon you, but you stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high.”[#Some manuscripts have “am sending”]
50And he led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands, he blessed them.
