3. Opened Eyes (v.31)

We might have thought that this experience would have come before the opened home, but in this case it did not do so. It seems that it was when they opened things up to the Lord that He was ready to open up things to them. Until this they had received a very full and heart-warming exposition of the Scriptures, but even so their eyes had not been opened to recognise Him. Bible study is very important and very rewarding, but the end in view should always be a new seeing of the risen Christ. We may wonder why He waited so long before revealing Himself in this way. Clearly He regarded the Bible explanations of what had happened as being of primary importance. He did not show Himself as a kind of emotional vision, but led them step by step through the Scriptures, and only when the truth was clearly established in a Biblical way did He let them see who He was. For them there could be no opened eyes without the Word of God, and the same is certainly true of us.
