What Does Luke 24:15 Mean?

Mid-conversation, a third traveler falls in step. Luke states it with quiet wonder: Jesus himself drew near and went with them. The risen Lord, on the day of his triumph, spends the afternoon walking a country road with two obscure, disheartened disciples.

He draws near while they are still confused, not after they have sorted everything out. That is his way — he meets us in the middle of our questions rather than waiting at the end of them. The risen Christ does not hold court for the strong; he walks beside the discouraged, often unrecognized at first, patiently keeping pace.
