Luke 24:37

Key Reflection

Suddenly, Jesus appears among them, uttering a familiar greeting of peace to reassure his shaken followers. This dramatic scene underscores the reality of Jesus' resurrection, as the original audience would have recognized that for someone to be seen in a locked room would have been extraordinary—miraculous even by first-century standards.
