As they were talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you!”
Luke 24:36
In the context of the text, the Disciples were confused, frightened, and faced with problems they were not yet equipped to handle.
Jesus had been crucified and buried.
Women followers reported the resurrection.
The forces that were at work to kill Jesus were then directed against His followers.
All-in-all, an uncommon and difficult day.
Jesus opened them up to hear and believe God’s way, truth, and life recorded to bring us peace.
