Places
Emmaus in Luke 24
eh-MAY-us
This place shows up in Luke 24:13: “Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Luke 24:13
“Behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was sixty stadia from Jerusalem.”
What kids can learn
When you hear emmaus in Luke, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
