We should seek to be more aware of His guidance and presence. The Importance of Scripture Jesus used the Scriptures to reveal Himself to the disciples. This emphasizes the importance of knowing and understanding the Bible to see Christ more clearly in our lives. Discussing Our Faith The disciples were discussing their faith and recent events. Engaging in conversations about our faith with others can lead to deeper understanding and revelation. Hope in Times of Confusion The disciples were confused and disheartened by the events in Jerusalem. Jesus' presence brought clarity and hope.

Practicing hospitality and fellowship can open doors to spiritual insights and blessings.(18) One of them, whose name was Cleopas.--The name is to be distinguished from the Clopas of John 19:25, which was probably a Graecised form of the Aramaic name of a Galilean disciple. Here the name is a Greek contraction of Cleopatros (so Antipas, from Antipatros), and so far, as connected with Cleopatra, indicates Hellenistic and probably Alexandrian antecedents. This may in part, perhaps, account for his imparting to St. Luke what had not found its way into the current oral teaching of the Hebrew Church at Jerusalem, as embodied in the narratives of St. Matthew and St. Mark. Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem?--The English is, at least, ambiguous. Better, Art thou alone a sojourner . . .? Verse 18. - And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas.
