1 Nowe the first day of the weeke early in the morning, they came vnto the sepulchre, and brought the odours, which they had prepared, and certaine women with them.
1 Y EL primer [día] de la semana, muy de mañana, vinieron al sepulcro, trayendo las [drogas] aromáticas que habían aparejado, y algunas [otras mujeres] con ellas.
2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre,
2 Y hallaron la piedra revuelta del sepulcro.
3 And went in, but found not the body of the Lord Iesus.
3 Y entrando, no hallaron el cuerpo del Señor Jesús.
4 And it came to passe, that as they were amased thereat, beholde, two men suddenly stood by them in shining vestures.
4 Y aconteció, que estando ellas espantadas de esto, he aquí se pararon junto á ellas dos varones con vestiduras resplandecientes;
5 And as they were afraide, and bowed downe their faces to the earth, they sayd to them, Why seeke ye him that liueth, among the dead?
5 Y como tuviesen ellas temor, y bajasen el rostro á tierra, les dijeron: ¿Por qué buscáis entre los muertos al que vive?
6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake vnto you, when he was yet in Galile,
6 No está aquí, mas ha resucitado: acordaos de lo que os habló, cuando aun estaba en Galilea,
7 Saying, that the sonne of man must be deliuered into the hands of sinfull men, and be crucified, and the third day rise againe.
7 Diciendo: Es menester que el Hijo del hombre sea entregado en manos de hombres pecadores, y que sea crucificado, y resucite al tercer día.
8 And they remembred his wordes,
8 Entonces ellas se acordaron de sus palabras,
9 And returned from the sepulchre, and tolde all these things vnto the eleuen, and to all the remnant.
9 Y volviendo del sepulcro, dieron nuevas de todas estas cosas á los once, y á todos los demás.
10 Now it was Mary Magdalene, and Ioanna, and Mary the mother of Iames, and other women with them, which tolde these things vnto the Apostles.
10 Y eran María Magdalena, y Juana, y María [madre] de Jacobo, y las demás con ellas, las que dijeron estas cosas á los apóstoles.
11 But their wordes seemed vnto them, as a fained thing, neither beleeued they them.
11 Mas á ellos les parecían como locura las palabras de ellas, y no las creyeron.
12 Then arose Peter, and ran vnto the sepulchre, and looked in, and saw the linnen clothes laide by themselues, and departed wondering in himselfe at that which was come to passe.
12 Pero levantándose Pedro, corrió al sepulcro: y como miró dentro, vió solos los lienzos echados; y se fué maravillándose de lo que había sucedido.
13 And beholde, two of them went that same day to a towne which was from Hierusalem about threescore furlongs, called Emmaus.
13 Y he aquí, dos de ellos iban el mismo día á una aldea que estaba de Jerusalem sesenta estadios, llamada Emmaús.
14 And they talked together of al these things that were done.
14 E iban hablando entre sí de todas aquellas cosas que habían acaecido.
15 And it came to passe, as they communed together, and reasoned, that Iesus himselfe drewe neere, and went with them.
15 Y aconteció que yendo hablando entre sí, y preguntándose el uno al otro, el mismo Jesús se llegó, é iba con ellos juntamente.
16 But their eyes were holden, that they could not know him.
16 Mas los ojos de ellos estaban embargados, para que no le conociesen.
17 And he sayd vnto them, What maner of communications are these that ye haue one to another as ye walke and are sad?
17 Y díjoles: ¿Qué pláticas son estas que tratáis entre vosotros andando, y estáis tristes?
18 And the one (named Cleopas) answered, and sayd vnto him, Art thou onely a stranger in Hierusalem, and hast not knowen the things which are come to passe therein in these dayes?
18 Y respondiendo el uno, que se llamaba Cleofas, le dijo: ¿Tú sólo peregrino eres en Jerusalem, y no has sabido las cosas que en ella han acontecido estos días?
19 And he said vnto them, What things? And they sayd vnto him, Of Iesus of Nazareth, which was a Prophet, mightie in deede and in word before God, and all people,
19 Entonces él les dijo: ¿Qué cosas? Y ellos le dijeron: De Jesús Nazareno, el cual fué varón profeta, poderoso en obra y en palabra delante de Dios y de todo el pueblo;
20 And howe the hie Priests, and our rulers deliuered him to be condemned to death, and haue crucified him.
20 Y cómo le entregaron los príncipes de los sacerdotes y nuestros príncipes á condenación de muerte, y le crucificaron.
21 But we trusted that it had bene he that should haue deliuered Israel, and as touching all these things, to day is ye third day, that they were done.
21 Mas nosotros esperábamos que él era el que había de redimir á Israel: y ahora sobre todo esto, hoy es el tercer día que esto ha acontecido.
22 Yea, and certaine women among vs made vs astonied, which came early vnto the sepulchre.
22 Aunque también unas mujeres de los nuestros nos han espantado, las cuales antes del día fueron al sepulcro:
23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seene a vision of Angels, which sayd, that he was aliue.
23 Y no hallando su cuerpo, vinieron diciendo que también habían visto visión de ángeles, los cuales dijeron que él vive.
24 Therefore certaine of them which were with vs, went to the sepulchre, and found it euen so as the women had sayd, but him they saw not.
24 Y fueron algunos de los nuestros al sepulcro, y hallaron así como las mujeres habían dicho; mas á él no le vieron.
25 Then he sayd vnto them, O fooles and slowe of heart to beleeue all that the Prophets haue spoken!
25 Entonces él les dijo: ¡Oh insensatos, y tardos de corazón para creer todo lo que los profetas han dicho!
26 Ought not Christ to haue suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
26 ¿No era necesario que el Cristo padeciera estas cosas, y que entrara en su gloria?
27 And he began at Moses, and at all the Prophets, and interpreted vnto them in all the Scriptures the things which were written of him.
27 Y comenzando desde Moisés, y de todos los profetas, declarábales en todas las Escrituras lo que de él decían.
28 And they drew neere vnto ye towne, which they went to, but he made as though hee would haue gone further.
28 Y llegaron á la aldea á donde iban: y él hizo como que iba más lejos.
29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with vs: for it is towards night, and the day is farre spent. So he went in to tarie with them.
29 Mas ellos le detuvieron por fuerza, diciendo: Quédate con nosotros, porque se hace tarde, y el día ya ha declinado. Entró pues á estarse con ellos.
30 And it came to passe, as hee sate at table with them, he tooke the bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gaue it to them.
30 Y aconteció, que estando sentado con ellos á la mesa, tomando el pan, bendijo, y partió, y dióles.
31 Then their eyes were opened, and they knewe him: and he was no more seene of them.
31 Entonces fueron abiertos los ojos de ellos, y le conocieron; mas él se desapareció de los ojos de ellos.
32 And they saide betweene themselues, Did not our heartes burne within vs, while he talked with vs by the way, and when he opened to vs the Scriptures?
32 Y decían el uno al otro: ¿No ardía nuestro corazón en nosotros, mientras nos hablaba en el camino, y cuando nos abría las Escrituras?
33 And they rose vp the same houre, and returned to Hierusalem, and found the Eleuen gathered together, and them that were with them,
33 Y levantándose en la misma hora, tornáronse á Jerusalem, y hallaron á los once reunidos, y á los que estaban con ellos.
34 Which said, The Lord is risen in deede, and hath appeared to Simon.
34 Que decían: Ha resucitado el Señor verdaderamente, y ha aparecido á Simón.
35 Then they tolde what things were done in the way, and howe he was knowen of them in breaking of bread.
35 Entonces ellos contaban las cosas que [les habían acontecido] en el camino, y cómo había sido conocido de ellos al partir el pan.
36 And as they spake these things, Iesus himselfe stoode in the middes of them, and saide vnto them, Peace be to you.
36 Y entre tanto que ellos hablaban estas cosas, él se puso en medio de ellos, y les dijo: Paz á vosotros.
37 But they were abashed and afraide, supposing that they had seene a spirit.
37 Entonces ellos espantados y asombrados, pensaban que veían espíritu.
38 Then he saide vnto them, Why are ye troubled? and wherefore doe doutes arise in your hearts?
38 Mas él les dice: ¿Por qué estáis turbados, y suben pensamientos á vuestros corazones?
39 Beholde mine handes and my feete: for it is I my selfe: handle me, and see: for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me haue.
39 Mirad mis manos y mis pies, que yo mismo soy: palpad, y ved; que el espíritu ni tiene carne ni huesos, como veis que yo tengo.
40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and feete.
40 Y en diciendo esto, les mostró las manos y los pies.
41 And while they yet beleeued not for ioy, and wondred, he saide vnto them, Haue ye here any meate?
41 Y no creyéndolo aún ellos de gozo, y maravillados, díjoles: ¿Tenéis aquí algo de comer?
42 And they gaue him a piece of a broyled fish, and of an honie combe,
42 Entonces ellos le presentaron parte de un pez asado, y un panal de miel.
43 And hee tooke it, and did eate before them.
43 Y él tomó, y comió delante de ellos.
44 And he saide vnto them, These are the wordes, which I spake vnto you while I was yet with you, that all must be fulfilled which are written of me in the Lawe of Moses, and in the Prophets, and in the Psalmes.
44 Y él les dijo: Estas son las palabras que os hablé, estando aún con vosotros: que era necesario que se cumpliesen todas las cosas que están escritas de mí en la ley de Moisés, y en los profetas, y en los salmos.
45 Then opened he their vnderstanding, that they might vnderstand the Scriptures,
45 Entonces les abrió el sentido, para que entendiesen las Escrituras;
46 And said vnto them, Thus is it written, and thus it behoued Christ to suffer, and to rise againe from the dead the third day,
46 Y díjoles: Así está escrito, y así fué necesario que el Cristo padeciese, y resucitase de los muertos al tercer día;
47 And that repentance, and remission of sinnes should be preached in his Name among all nations, beginning at Hierusalem.
47 Y que se predicase en su nombre el arrepentimiento y la remisión de pecados en todas las naciones, comenzando de Jerusalem.
48 Nowe ye are witnesses of these things.
48 Y vosotros sois testigos de estas cosas.
49 And beholde, I doe sende the promise of my Father vpon you: but tary ye in the citie of Hierusalem, vntill ye be endued with power from an hie.
49 Y he aquí, yo enviaré la promesa de mi Padre sobre vosotros: mas vosotros asentad en la ciudad de Jerusalem, hasta que seáis investidos de potencia de lo alto.
50 Afterward he lead them out into Bethania, and lift vp his hands, and blessed them.
50 Y sacólos fuera hasta Bethania, y alzando sus manos, los bendijo.
51 And it came to passe, that as he blessed them, he departed from them, and was caried vp into heauen.
51 Y aconteció que bendiciéndolos, se fué de ellos; y era llevado arriba al cielo.
52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Hierusalem with great ioy,
52 Y ellos, después de haberle adorado, se volvieron á Jerusalem con gran gozo;
53 And were continually in the Temple, praysing, and lauding God, Amen.
53 Y estaban siempre en el templo, alabando y bendiciendo á Dios. Amén.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
The Lord appeared to His disciples after His resurrection, as ye have heard, and saluted them, saying, "Peace be unto you." This is peace indeed, and the salutation of salvation: for the very word salutation has received its name from salvation. And what can be better than that Salvation Itself should salute man? For Christ is our Salvation.

… was that the Lord discoursed with the disciples after His resurrection from the dead, proving to them from the Scriptures themselves "that Christ must suffer, and enter into His glory, and that remission of sins should be preached in His name throughout all the world." And the disciple will be perfected, and [rendered] like the householder, "who bringeth forth from …

His running to the fig-tree, His shrinking, that is, His drawing back, His praying, and His making as though He would have gone further For neither as God nor as man was He in need of these or similar things, but only because His form was that of a man as necessity and expediency demanded.
