Lc 24, 13-35
El mismo día de la resurrección, iban dos de los discípulos hacia un pueblo llamado Emaús, situado a unos once kilómetros de Jerusalén, y comentaban todo lo que había sucedido.
Mientras conversaban y discutían, Jesús se les acercó y comenzó a caminar con ellos; pero los ojos de los dos discípulos estaban velados y no lo reconocieron. Él les preguntó: "¿De qué cosas vienen hablando, tan llenos de tristeza?"
Uno de ellos, llamado Cleofás, le respondió: "¿Eres tú el único forastero que no sabe lo que ha sucedido estos días en Jerusalén?" Él les preguntó: "¿Qué cosa?" Ellos le respondieron: "Lo de Jesús el nazareno, que era un profeta poderoso en obras y palabras, ante Dios y ante todo el pueblo. Cómo los sumos sacerdotes y nuestros jefes lo entregaron para que lo condenaran a muerte, y lo crucificaron. Nosotros esperábamos que él sería el libertador de Israel, y sin embargo, han pasado ya tres días desde que estas cosas sucedieron. Es cierto que algunas mujeres de nuestro grupo nos han desconcertado, pues fueron de madrugada al sepulcro, no encontraron el cuerpo y llegaron contando que se les habían aparecido unos ángeles, que les dijeron que estaba vivo. Algunos de nuestros compañeros fueron al sepulcro y hallaron todo como habían dicho las mujeres, pero a él no lo vieron".
Entonces Jesús les dijo: "¡Qué insensatos son ustedes y qué duros de corazón para creer todo lo anunciado por los profetas! ¿Acaso no era necesario que el Mesías padeciera todo esto y así entrara en su gloria?" Y comenzando por Moisés y siguiendo con todos los profetas, les explicó todos los pasajes de la Escritura que se referían a él.
Ya cerca del pueblo a donde se dirigían, él hizo como que iba más lejos; pero ellos le insistieron, diciendo: "Quédate con nosotros, porque ya es tarde y pronto va a oscurecer". Y entró para quedarse con ellos. Cuando estaban a la mesa, tomó un pan, pronunció la bendición, lo partió y se lo dio. Entonces se les abrieron los ojos y lo reconocieron, pero él se les desapareció. Y ellos se decían el uno al otro: "¡Con razón nuestro corazón ardía, mientras nos hablaba por el camino y nos explicaba las Escrituras!"
Se levantaron inmediatamente y regresaron a Jerusalén, donde encontraron reunidos a los Once con sus compañeros, los cuales les dijeron: "De veras ha resucitado el Señor y se le ha aparecido a Simón". Entonces ellos contaron lo que les había pasado en el camino y cómo lo habían reconocido al partir el pan.

GospelLK 24:13-35
That very day, the first day of the week,
two of Jesus' disciples were going
to a village seven miles from Jerusalem called Emmaus,
and they were conversing about all the things that had occurred.
And it happened that while they were conversing and debating,
Jesus himself drew near and walked with them,
but their eyes were prevented from recognizing him.
He asked them,
"What are you discussing as you walk along?"
They stopped, looking downcast.
One of them, named Cleopas, said to him in reply,
"Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem
who does not know of the things
that have taken place there in these days?"
And he replied to them, "What sort of things?"
They said to him,
"The things that happened to Jesus the Nazarene,
who was a prophet mighty in deed and word
before God and all the people,
how our chief priests and rulers both handed him over
to a sentence of death and crucified him.
But we were hoping that he would be the one to redeem Israel;
and besides all this,
it is now the third day since this took place.
Some women from our group, however, have astounded us:
they were at the tomb early in the morning
and did not find his Body;
they came back and reported
that they had indeed seen a vision of angels
who announced that he was alive.
Then some of those with us went to the tomb
and found things just as the women had described,
but him they did not see."
And he said to them, "Oh, how foolish you are!
How slow of heart to believe all that the prophets spoke!
Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things
and enter into his glory?"
Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets,
he interpreted to them what referred to him
in all the Scriptures.
As they approached the village to which they were going,
he gave the impression that he was going on farther.
But they urged him, "Stay with us,
for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over."
So he went in to stay with them.
And it happened that, while he was with them at table,
he took bread, said the blessing,
broke it, and gave it to them.
With that their eyes were opened and they recognized him,
but he vanished from their sight.
Then they said to each other,
"Were not our hearts burning within us
while he spoke to us on the way and opened the Scriptures to us?"
So they set out at once and returned to Jerusalem
where they found gathered together
the Eleven and those with them who were saying,
"The Lord has truly been raised and has appeared to Simon!"
Then the two recounted what had taken place on the way
and how he was made known to them in the breaking of the bread.

Meditacion:
El evangelio de hoy sobre los discipulos de Emaus nos recuerda con cuanta facilidad perdemos de vista nuestro objetivo de parecernos a Jesus en su vida.
Estos discipulos volvian consternados por la muerte de Jesus y aun no sabian entendido que habia resucitado, seguian viendo al mundo y lo que los rodeaba como lugares comunes, Jesus se habia ido.. que seria de ellos ahora?
Caminaron con Jesus y seguian sin reconocerlo, les explicaba las escrituras y nada. su corazon seguia en otra cosa como decimos ahora.
Tuvo que, finalmente, manifestarse en la consagracion del pan para, finalmente, reconocerlo.. y sin embargo durante todo el tiempo sentian su corazon ardiendo de amor por ese desconocido que iba caminando con ellos.
No son estos discipulos nosotros mismos, cada dia, haciendonos la promesa de ser buenos, caminando a traves de nuestra vida diaria, pasando junto a infinitos Cristos en nuestros hermanos pero sin hacer nada por ellos?
Dios me ha sorprendido mas de una vez en lugares donde no lo esperaba, en el hermano que vive en la calle, en la prostituta que me ofrece sus servicios, en el adicto que se cruza conmigo en la calle, en cada uno de ellos Jesus esta presente y nos llama a amarlos.
Y no siempre es una moneda lo que resuelve su situacion, a veces es solo una mirada que le diga que no esta solo, una bendicion, escucharlos...
Lo mismo con nuestra misma familia... tenemos la paciencia suficiente para reflejar en nuestra casa el evangelio? una vida de amor fraterno?, practicamos oracion en familia y nos bendecimos?
El evangelio de Emaus nos llama a reflexionar sobre estas cosas simples que a veces no hacemos pero que dan sentido a todas las otras cosas mas complejas como nuestras practicas religiosas diarias.
Hermanos alegrense, Jesus ha resucitado, escribamos con nuestra propia vida, el quinto evangelio y seamos testigos felices del amor diario de Dios por su creacion.
Amen
Today's gospel about the disciples of Emaus reminds us how easily we lose sight of our goal to be like Jesus in his life.
These disciples became dismayed by the death of Jesus and still did not know that he had risen, they continued to see the world and what surrounded them as common places, Jesus had left .. what would become of them now?
They walked with Jesus and still did not recognize him, he explained the scriptures and nothing. his heart was still in something else as we say now.
He had to finally manifest himself in the consecration of the bread to finally recognize it .. and yet all the time they felt his heart burning with love for that stranger who was walking with them.
Are not these disciples ourselves, each day, making us promise to be good, walking through our daily lives, passing by countless Christs in our brothers but doing nothing for them?
God has surprised me more than once in places where I did not expect it, in the brother who lives on the street, in the prostitute who offers me his services, in the addict who crosses paths with me on the street, in each one of them Jesus is present and calls us to love them.
And it's not always a coin that solves your situation, sometimes it's just a look that tells you that you're not alone, a blessing, listen to them ...
The same with our own family ... do we have enough patience to reflect the gospel in our home? a life of fraternal love ?, we practice prayer in family and we are blessed?
The gospel of Emmaus calls us to reflect on these simple things that we sometimes do not do but that give meaning to all the other more complex things like our daily religious practices.
Brothers rejoice, Jesus has risen, let us write with our own life, the fifth gospel and be happy witnesses of the daily love of God for his creation.
Amen
