On the first day of the week, in the morning while it was still dark, they came to the tomb and brought these aromatics they had prepared. And there were other women with them.

And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.

And they went in and did not find the body of Y'shua.

And while they were wondering at this, two men stood over them, and their clothing was shining.

And they were in fear and bowed their faces to the ground. And they said to them, Why are you seeking the living among the dead?

He is not here; he has risen. Remember what he spoke with you when he was in Galila,

and he was saying that the Son of man is about to be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and to be crucified, and on the third day to rise.

And they remembered his words.

And they returned from the tomb and told all these things to the eleven and to the rest.

Now they were Maryam Magdalytha and Yochan and Maryam the mother of Ya'akov and the rest who were with them; these were saying these things to the apostles.

And these words appeared in their eyes like nonsense, and they did not believe them.

But Shimon rose and ran to the tomb and looked in and saw the linen cloths lying alone, and he went away wondering in himself at what had happened.

And two of them on that same day were going to a village whose name is Emmaus, sixty stadia distant from Urishlim.

And they were speaking with one another about all these things that had happened.

And while they were speaking and inquiring with one another, Y'shua came and reached them and was walking with them.

And their eyes were held, so that they would not recognize him.

And he said to them: What are these words that you are speaking with one another as you walk, and you are sad?

One of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered and said to him: Are you only a stranger from Urishlim, that you do not know the thing that happened in it in these days?

He said to them, What? They say to him, About Y'shua who is from Natsrath, a man who was a prophet and was mighty in word and in deed before Elohim and before all the people.

And the chief priests and the elders delivered him up to the judgment of death, and they crucified him.

But we were hoping that he was the one who was going to deliver Yisrael. And three days have passed since all these things happened.

But also some women from among us astonished us, for they went early to the tomb.

And when they did not find his body, they came and said to us that they had seen messengers there, and they said about him that he is alive.

And also some men from among us went to the tomb, and they found it just as the women had said, but him they did not see.

Then Y'shua said to them, O you short of understanding and heavy of heart to believe all those things that the prophets spoke.

Were not these things to be, that the Mashiyach should suffer and that he should enter into his glory?

And he began from Moshe and from all the prophets, and he was expounding to them concerning himself from all the writings.

And they drew near to the village to which they were going, and he was making them think as if he were going to a more distant place.

And they urged him and said to him, Stay with us, for the day has now declined toward dark. And he went in to stay with them.

And it was that while he reclined with them, he took bread and blessed and broke and gave to them.

And at once their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And he was taken from them.

And they were saying one to another: Was not our heart heavy within us while he spoke with us on the road and explained the writings to us?¹

And they rose up in that hour and returned to Urishlim, and found the eleven gathered, and those with them,

who were saying: Truly our Master has risen, and has appeared to Shimon.

And they also related what happened on the road, and how he was made known to them when he broke the bread.

And while they were speaking these things, Y'shua stood among them and said to them: Peace be with you. It is I; do not be afraid.

And they were alarmed and were in fear, for they supposed they were seeing a spirit.

And Y'shua said to them: Why are you agitated? And why do thoughts rise up in your hearts?

Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and know, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.

And as he said these things, he showed them his hands and his feet.

And while they still did not believe from their joy and were astonished, he said to them: Do you have anything here to eat?

And they gave him a piece of broiled fish and of a honeycomb.

And he took and ate before them.

And he said to them, These are the words that I spoke with you while I was with you, that it is necessary that everything written in the law of Moshe and in the prophets and in the psalms about me be fulfilled.

Then he opened their mind to understand the writings.

And he said to them, Thus it is written, and thus it was right for the Mashiyach to suffer, and to rise from among the dead on the third day;

and that repentance for forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name among all the peoples, and the beginning will be from Urishlim.

And you are the witnesses of these things.

And I will send upon you the promise of my Father. But you remain in Urishlim the city until you are clothed with power from on high.

And he led them out as far as Beth-Anya, and he lifted up his hands and blessed them.

And it was that while he was blessing them, he was separated from them and went up to heaven.

And they bowed down to him and returned to Urishlim with great joy.

And they were at all times in the temple, praising and blessing Elohim. Amen.
