Our Hearts Burned

Name Date

Read and Think

On Sunday morning, the women who had followed Jesus came to the tomb with spices. They found the stone rolled away and the tomb empty. Two angels reminded them that Jesus had said He would be crucified and rise on the third day. They remembered His words and told the apostles. At first, the apostles thought it was nonsense, but Peter ran to the tomb and wondered at what he saw.

Two sad disciples walked toward Emmaus. Jesus came near, but their eyes were kept from knowing Him. They said they had hoped Jesus would redeem Israel. Jesus showed them from all the Scriptures that the Christ had to suffer and then enter His glory. At supper He broke bread, and they recognized Him. They said their hearts burned while He opened the Scriptures.

Jesus appeared to the eleven. They were afraid, thinking He was a ghost. He showed His wounds and ate a piece of fish. He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures. Repentance and forgiveness would be preached in His name to all nations. He promised power from on high. Near Bethany He blessed them and rose to heaven.
