Episode 172 - Jesus’ Resurrection According to Luke’s Gospel

Episode Summary

This story derives from chapter 24.  It begins with several women going to Jesus’ tomb with spices.  When they arrive, the stone to the entrance has been removed.  The women look it, but see no body.  Instead, they encounter two men who want to know why the women are looking for the dead among the living.  Astounded, the women go to the disciples and other followers of Jesus to tell them what happened.  But they are not believed.  On that same day, two from Jesus’ inner circle encounter Jesus on the Road to Emmaus.  However, they do not recognize him until he eats with them.  When they are telling the other followers what had happened, Jesus appears.  He ensures that they know that his resurrection was a bodily resurrection.  He also teaches the group what the Scripture says about him.  The chapter ends with Jesus’ commissioning the group, followed by his ascension.
