190:5.1 At [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmaus Emmaus], about seven miles west of [[Jerusalem]], there lived two [[brothers]], [[shepherds]], who had spent the [[Passover]] week in [[Jerusalem]] attending upon the [[sacrifices]], [[ceremonials]], and [[feasts]]. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleopas Cleopas], the elder, was a partial [[believer]] in [[Jesus]]; at least he had been cast out of the [[synagogue]]. His [[brother]], Jacob, was not a [[believer]], although he was much [[intrigued]] by what he had heard about [[the Master]]'s [[teachings]] and works.

190:5.2 On this Sunday afternoon, about three miles out of [[Jerusalem]] and a few minutes before five o'clock, as these two [[brothers]] trudged along the road to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmaus Emmaus], they talked in great [[earnestness]] about [[Jesus]], his [[teachings]], [[work]], and more especially concerning the [[rumors]] that his [[tomb]] was empty, and that certain of the [[women]] had talked with him. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleopas Cleopas] was half a [[mind]] to [[believe]] these reports, but Jacob was [[insistent]] that the whole affair was probably a [[fraud]]. While they thus [[argued]] and [[debated]] as they made their way toward [[home]], the [[morontia]] [[manifestation]] of [[Jesus]], his seventh [[appearance]], came alongside them as they [[journeyed]] on. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleopas Cleopas] had often heard [[Jesus]] [[teach]] and had eaten with him at the [[homes]] of [[Jerusalem]] [[believers]] on several occasions. But he did not [[recognize]] [[the Master]] even when he [[spoke]] freely with them.

190:5.3 After walking a short way with them, [[Jesus]] said: " What were the [[words]] you exchanged so [[earnestly]] as I came upon you? " And when [[Jesus]] had spoken, they stood still and viewed him with sad [[surprise]]. Said [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleopas Cleopas]: " Can it be that you [[sojourn]] in [[Jerusalem]] and [[know]] not the [[things]] which have recently happened? " Then asked [[the Master]], " What things? " [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleopas Cleopas] replied: " If you do not know about these matters, you are the only one in [[Jerusalem]] who has not heard these [[rumors]] concerning [[Jesus]] of [[Nazareth]], who was a [[prophet]] mighty in [[word]] and in deed before [[God]] and all the people. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kohen_Gadol chief priests] and our rulers delivered him up to the [[Romans]] and demanded that they [[crucify]] him.

It is now the third day since he was [[crucified]], and certain [[women]] have this day [[amazed]] us by [[declaring]] that very early this [[morning]] they went to his [[tomb]] and found it empty. And these same [[women]] insist that they [[talked]] with this man; they maintain that he has [[Resurrection|risen]] from the [[dead]]. And when the [[women]] reported this to the men, two of his [[apostles]] ran to the [[tomb]] and likewise found it empty "—and here Jacob [[interrupted]] his [[brother]] to say, " but they did not see [[Jesus]].
