Jesus' resurrection is declared by two angels to the women who come to the tomb.9. They report it to others. 13. Jesus himself appears to the two disciples that went to Emmaus; 36. afterwards he appears to the apostles, and reproves their unbelief; 47. gives them a charge; 49. promises the Holy Spirit; 50. and so ascends into heaven. But we were hoping This phrase captures the deep sense of disappointment and shattered expectations experienced by the disciples. The Greek word for "hoping" is "elpizō," which conveys a sense of trust and confident expectation. The disciples had placed their trust in Jesus as the Messiah, expecting Him to redeem Israel. This hope was not merely a wish but a confident expectation rooted in the promises of God. Historically, the Jewish people were under Roman occupation and longed for a political and national deliverance. The disciples' hope was that Jesus would fulfill this role, but His crucifixion seemed to dash these hopes. This phrase invites believers to reflect on the nature of hope in Christ, which transcends earthly circumstances and is anchored in the eternal promises of God. that He was the One who would redeem Israel Indeed, besides all this it is the third day Which should have redeemed Israel.--More exactly, He that is about to redeem . . . The two travellers belonged apparently to those who now, as at the time of the Nativity, were waiting for redemption in Jerusalem (Luke 2:38). To day is the third day .--We note how naturally the disciples fall, from the first, into this method of describing the interval since the Crucifixion. Verse 21. - But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel. And we who were his friends and followers, we thought we had found in him the Redeemer of Israel, King Messiah! Think! the Redeemer crucified! Although the Redeemer, in the sense they-probably understood the word, was something very different to the sense we give to it, the idea was still something very lofty and sublime. It in-eluded, no doubt, much of earthly glory and dominion for Israel, but in some definite sense the Gentile world, too, would share in the blessings of Messiah. And to think of the shameful cross putting an end to all these hopes! And beside all this, to-day is the third day since these things were done. But yet terrible and despairing as was the story of Cleopas and his friend, their tone was not quite hopeless; for they went on, "And now we have come to the third day since they crucified him." No doubt they dwelt a short space on the expression, "third day," telling the Stranger how their dead Master, when alive, had bade his friends watch for the third day from his death. The third day, he had told them, would be the day of his triumphant return to them; and, strangely enough, on the early morning of this third day, something did happen which had stirred, excited, and perplexed them. Certain women of their company, who had been early to the grave of the Master, meaning to embalm the corpse, found the sepulchre empty, and they came back reporting how they had seen a vision of angels there, who told them their Master lived.
