Materialisation of the Spiritual Body of Jesus - Part 2

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

In Chapter 173 Jesus appeared, fully materialised, to his mother, Miriam, Mary

of Magdalene and to Peter, James and John.

 

Here then is the continuation i.e. Chapter 174 in which Jesus appears, fully

materialised, to Zachus and Cleophas as they journey to Emmaus, but they don't

know him. He reveals himself to them and tells them many things and they have a

meal together.

 

Enjoy!

Chapter 174

 

(Jesus appears, fully materialised, to Zachus and Cleophas as they journey to

Emmaus, but they know him not. He tells them many things about Christ. He eats

the evening meal with them, and reveals himself to them. They go to Jerusalem

and tell the news.)

 

1. Towards the evening of the resurrection day, two friends of Jesus, Zachus and

Cleophas of Emmaus, seven miles away, were going to their home.

 

2. And as they walked and talked about the things that had occurred a stranger

joined their company.

 

3. He said, My friends, you seem discouraged and are sad. Has some great grief

upon you come?

 

4. Cleophas said, Are you a stranger in Judea, and know not of the thrilling

things that have transpired here?

 

5. The stranger said, What things? To what do you refer?

 

6. Cleophas said, Have you not heard about the man from Galilee who was a

prophet mighty in both word and deed?

 

7. A man whom many thought had come to found again the kingdom of the Jews, and

drive the Romans from the city of Jerusalem and be himself the king?

 

8. The stranger said, Tell me about this man.

 

9. Cleophas said, His name was Jesus; he was born in Bethlehem; his home was up

in Galilee. He loved the people as he loved himself.

 

10. He was, in truth, a master sent from God, for he had matchless power. He

healed the sick and made the deaf to hear, the blind to see, the lame to walk,

and even raised the dead.

 

11. The Jewish scribes and Pharisees were jealous of his fame and power, and

they arrested him; by perjured witnesses they proved him guilty of a score of

crimes,

 

12. And on last Friday he was taken to the place of skulls and crucified.

 

13. He died and he was buried in a rich man's tomb, out in the garden of Siloam.

 

14. This very morning when his friends went to the tomb they found it empty; the

body of the Lord was gone.

 

15. And now the news has spread abroad that he has risen from the dead.

 

16. The stranger said, Yes, I have heard about this man; but it seems strange

that after all the things that Jewish prophets long ago foretold concerning him

that when he came men knew him not.

 

17. This man was born to demonstrate the Christ to men, and it is just to say

that Jesus is the Christ.

 

18. According to the word, this Jesus came to suffer at the hands of men, to

give his life as pattern for the sons of men;

 

19. To rise from death that men might know the way to rise from death.

 

20. And then the stranger told the two disciples all about the Law, the Prophets

and the Psalms, and read to them a multitude of things that had been written of

this man from Galilee.

 

21. And now the men had reached their home, and as the night was near they

importuned the stranger to abide with them.

 

22. And he went in with them and as they sat about the table at the evening

meal, he took a piece of bread, and blessed it in the name of Christ.

 

23. And instantly their eyes were opened up, and they perceived that he, the

stranger, was the Lord, the man from Galilee; that he had risen from the dead;

and then the form of Jesus disappeared.

 

24. When he had gone, the two disciples were amazed. They said, Did not our

hearts burn with delight while he was talking to us by the way and opening up

the testimonies of the Law, the Prophets and the Psalms?

 

25. Then Zachus and Cleophas went back to Jerusalem, and everywhere they went

they said, Lo, we have seen the Lord;

 

26. He walked with us to Emmaus; he ate with us the evening meal, and broke for

us the bread of life.

describes both the physical and spiritual aspects of the

resurrection of Jesus in a way that makes a lot of spiritual sense -

but it didn't make a lot of sense to the eyes and ears of the

witnesses insofar as it was beyond anything that they had

experienced before! When you read the passage below, it will be

interesting to take note how the witnesses to the Resurrection, did

not really have the words to convey what was happening... or what

had happened! Sure enough, they witnessed it, they knew Jesus had

arisen from the dead, but they could not describe it, in their

ordinary terms of reference; it was extraordinary. Indeed, it was

extraordinary!
