The Walk to Emmaus Luke 24: 13-16 Now on that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem, and talking with each other about all these things that had happened. While they were talking and discussing, Jesus himself came near and went with them, but their eyes were kept from recognizing him.

Velazquez: The Kitchen Girl at Emmaus 1618
She listens, listens, holdingher breath. Surely that voice is his – the onewho had looked at her, once, across the crowd,as no one ever had looked?Had seen her? Had spoken as if to her? Surely those hands were his,taking the platter of bread from hers just now? Hands he’d laid on the dying and made them well? Surely that face-? The man they’d crucified for sedition and blasphemy.The man whose body disappeared from its tomb. The man it was rumored now some women had seen this morning, alive? Those who had brought this stranger home to their table don’t recognize yet with whom they sit. But she in the kitchen, absently touching the winejug she’s to take in, a young Black servant intently listening. swings round and sees the light around him and is sure.
