1 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they and certain other women with them came to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared.
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 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,
2 Y hallaron la piedra revuelta del sepulcro.
3 but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
3 Y entrando, no hallaron el cuerpo del Señor Jesús.
4 While they were puzzling over this, suddenly two men in radiant apparel stood beside them.
4 Y aconteció, que estando ellas espantadas de esto, he aquí se pararon junto á ellas dos varones con vestiduras resplandecientes;
5 As the women bowed their faces to the ground in terror, the two men asked them, “Why do you look for the living 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; He has risen! Remember how He told you while He was still in Galilee:
6 No está aquí, mas ha resucitado: acordaos de lo que os habló, cuando aun estaba en Galilea,
7 ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’”
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 Then they remembered His words.
8 Entonces ellas se acordaron de sus palabras,
9 And when they returned from the tomb, they reported all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.
9 Y volviendo del sepulcro, dieron nuevas de todas estas cosas á los once, y á todos los demás.
10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told this to 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 words seemed like nonsense to them, and they did not believe the women.
11 Mas á ellos les parecían como locura las palabras de ellas, y no las creyeron.
12 Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. And after bending down and seeing only the linen cloths lying there, he went away, wondering to himself what had happened.
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 That same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.
13 Y he aquí, dos de ellos iban el mismo día á una aldea que estaba de Jerusalem sesenta estadios, llamada Emmaús.
14 They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.
14 E iban hablando entre sí de todas aquellas cosas que habían acaecido.
15 And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself came up and walked along 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 kept from recognizing Him.
16 Mas los ojos de ellos estaban embargados, para que no le conociesen.
17 He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along with sadness on your faces?”
17 Y díjoles: ¿Qué pláticas son estas que tratáis entre vosotros andando, y estáis tristes?
18 The one named Cleopas asked Him, “Are You the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in recent days?”
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 “What things?” He asked. “The events involving Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered. “This man was a prophet, powerful in speech and action before God and all the 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 Our chief priests and rulers delivered Him up to the sentence of death, and they 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 were hoping He was the One who would redeem Israel. And besides all this, today is the third day since these things took place.
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 Furthermore, some of our women astounded us. They were at the tomb early,
22 Aunque también unas mujeres de los nuestros nos han espantado, las cuales antes del día fueron al sepulcro:
23 but they did not find His body. They came and told us they had seen a vision of angels, who said that Jesus was alive.
23 Y no hallando su cuerpo, vinieron diciendo que también habían visto visión de ángeles, los cuales dijeron que él vive.
24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had described. But Him they did not see.”
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 Jesus said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!
25 Entonces él les dijo: ¡Oh insensatos, y tardos de corazón para creer todo lo que los profetas han dicho!
26 Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and then to enter His glory?”
26 ¿No era necesario que el Cristo padeciera estas cosas, y que entrara en su gloria?
27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them what was written in all the Scriptures about Himself.
27 Y comenzando desde Moisés, y de todos los profetas, declarábales en todas las Escrituras lo que de él decían.
28 As they approached the village where they were headed, He seemed to be going farther.
28 Y llegaron á la aldea á donde iban: y él hizo como que iba más lejos.
29 But they pleaded with Him, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over.” So He went in to stay 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 While He was reclining at the table with them, He took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave 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 recognized Jesus—and He disappeared from their sight.
31 Entonces fueron abiertos los ojos de ellos, y le conocieron; mas él se desapareció de los ojos de ellos.
32 They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us as He spoke with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”
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 got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, gathered together
33 Y levantándose en la misma hora, tornáronse á Jerusalem, y hallaron á los once reunidos, y á los que estaban con ellos.
34 and saying, “The Lord has indeed risen and has appeared to Simon!”
34 Que decían: Ha resucitado el Señor verdaderamente, y ha aparecido á Simón.
35 Then the two told what had happened on the road, and how they had recognized Jesus in the breaking of the 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 While they were describing these events, Jesus Himself stood among them and said, “Peace be with 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 startled and frightened, thinking they had seen a spirit.
37 Entonces ellos espantados y asombrados, pensaban que veían espíritu.
38 “Why are you troubled,” Jesus asked, “and why do doubts arise in your hearts?
38 Mas él les dice: ¿Por qué estáis turbados, y suben pensamientos á vuestros corazones?
39 Look at My hands and My feet. It is I Myself. Touch Me and see—for a spirit does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”
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 said this, He showed them His hands and feet.
40 Y en diciendo esto, les mostró las manos y los pies.
41 While they were still in disbelief because of their joy and amazement, He asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”
41 Y no creyéndolo aún ellos de gozo, y maravillados, díjoles: ¿Tenéis aquí algo de comer?
42 So they gave Him a piece of broiled fish and some honeycomb,
42 Entonces ellos le presentaron parte de un pez asado, y un panal de miel.
43 and He took them and ate them in front of them.
43 Y él tomó, y comió delante de ellos.
44 Jesus said to them, “These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms.”
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 He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.
45 Entonces les abrió el sentido, para que entendiesen las Escrituras;
46 And He told them, “This is what is written: And thus it is necessary that the Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on 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 in His name repentance and forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem.
47 Y que se predicase en su nombre el arrepentimiento y la remisión de pecados en todas las naciones, comenzando de Jerusalem.
48 You are witnesses of these things.
48 Y vosotros sois testigos de estas cosas.
49 And behold, I am sending the promise of My Father upon you. But remain in the city of Jerusalem until you have been clothed with power from on high.”
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 When Jesus had led them out as far as Bethany, He lifted up His hands and blessed them.
50 Y sacólos fuera hasta Bethania, y alzando sus manos, los bendijo.
51 While He was blessing them, He left them and was carried up into heaven.
51 Y aconteció que bendiciéndolos, se fué de ellos; y era llevado arriba al cielo.
52 And they worshiped Him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,
52 Y ellos, después de haberle adorado, se volvieron á Jerusalem con gran gozo;
53 praising and blessing God continually in the temple.
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.
