Luke 24:15
13 That same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.
14 They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.
And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself came up and walked along with them.
16 But their eyes were kept from recognizing Him.
17 He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?” They stood still, with sadness on their faces.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
