Luke 24:36-41 (Easter Sunday Service Sermon) Verse 36 drives us back to Emmaus. The disciple named Cleopas and his unnamed companion had just experienced an unexpected encounter with the risen Lord on the road and at table.

After their eyes opened to see Him, they immediately retrace their seven-mile journey back to Jerusalem and find the eleven (and others). As they are recounting their experience, Jesus does it again. As they are recounting their experience, Jesus does it again. He appears out of nowhere and interrupts them: “Peace be with you.”

But Luke is unambiguous. The resurrection was real, and it was physical. Notice how many physical details he includes. It begins with Jesus’ own words: “See My hands and My feet, that it is I myself. Touch Me and see.

But what does it matter for your hearers? Jesus’ physical resurrection was good for Him, but unless your hearers have some advantageous connection to Him, the historicity does not matter much.

This is where some apologetic attempts to demonstrate proof of a physical resurrection fall short. Even if we had evidence of the empty tomb, the benefit of Jesus’ resurrection for anyone beside Himself would still be a matter of faith.
