Mu Dia lumingu dia 16 ngondo wa Nisana, bayidi mbatshioke mu lungenyi. Kabavua bumvue bua tshinyi mu lukita muvua mutupu to. (Matayi 28:9, 10; Luka 24:11) Dituku dimane kuya, Keleopa ne muyidi mukuabu badi bumbuka mu Yelushalema baya batangile ku Emause, uvua ntanta wa kilometre 11.

Padibu benda baya, badi benda bayikila bua tshivua tshienzeke. Pashishe muenyi kampanda wakabapeta. Kubebejaye ne: “Mmalu kayi anudi nuenda nuya nuenda nuyukila au?” Keleopa udi wandamuna ne: “Wewe udi muenyi udi musombe pa nkayebe mu Yelushalema, kuyi mumanye malu adi menzekamu mu matuku aa anyi?” Muenyi udi umuebeja ne: “Mmalu kayi?”​—Luka 24:17-19.

Badi bamba ne: “Malu adi atangila Yezu muena Nazaleta, tuvua batekemene ne: muntu au ke uvua ne bua kupikula Isalele.”​—Luka 24:19-21.

Keleopa ne mulunda wende bakatungunuka ne kuakula bua malu avua menzeke dituku adi. Bakamba ne: bamue bantu bakaji bavua baye ku lukita luvuabu bajiike Yezu bavua balusangane munda mutupu, ne bantu bakaji abu bavua bamone bualu budi bukemesha bua muvua banjelu babamuenekele bamba ne: Yezu ukadi ne muoyo. Bakamba kabidi ne: bantu bakuabu bakaya ku lukita ne “kusanganabu malu anu muvua bakaji abu bambe.”​—Luka 24:24.

Bayidi babidi aba kabavua bushuwa bumvue bimpe malu avua menzeke to. Ke muenyi eu kuakaja ngelelu wabu wa meji mubi uvua unyanga mioyo yabu ne bukokeshi buonso wamba ne: “Nuenu bantu badi kabayi ne lungenyi, badi ne lujoko mu muoyo bua kuitaba malu onso adi baprofete bambe! Kabivuaku bikengela bua Kristo kukenga ne malu aa bua kubuelaye mu butumbi buende anyi?” (Luka 24:25, 26) Wakatungunuka ne kubumvuija mvese ya bungi ya mu Mifundu ivua yakula bua Kristo.

Ndekelu wa bionso bantu basatu aba bakafika pabuipi ne Emause. Bu muvua bayidi babidi aba bajinga kumvua malu makuabu, bakasengelela muenyi eu bamba ne: “Shala netu, bualu tukadi anu mene dilolo ne dituku dikadi diamba kujika.” Wakitaba bua kushala nabu ne bakadia. Bu muvua muenyi eu muenze disambila, mutshibule diampa, ne mubapeshadi, bakamumanya, kadi pashishe wakajimina. (Luka 24:29-31) Mpindieu mbashindike ne: Yezu udi ne muoyo.

Bayidi babidi aba bakakula ne disanka bua malu avuabu bamone bamba ne: “Mioyo yetu kayivua itema munda muetu pavuaye wakula netu mu njila, pavuaye utubuluila bimpe Mifundu anyi?” (Luka 24:32) Bakapingana ne lukasa ku Yelushalema, kusanganabu bapostolo bikale ne bantu bakuabu. Kumpala kua Keleopa ne mulunda wende kubambila tshivua tshienzeke, bakumvua bantu bakuabu bamba ne: “Mu bulelela, Mukalenge mmujudibue, uvua mumuenekele Simona!” (Luka 24:34) Pashishe bantu babidi aba bakalonda muvua Yezu mubamuenekele. Bushuwa bobu pabu bavua badimuene bualu abu.

Yezu udi ubamuenekela mu nzubu, ne mpindieu bonso badi bapampakana! Bualu ebu buvua bubapitshile bualu bavua bakange tshiibi ne bikuvu bu muvuabu batshina bena Yuda. Kadi Yezu udi wimana diakamue munkatshi muabu. Kubambilaye ne lutulu luonso ne: “Ditalala dikale nenu.” Kadi bavua ne buôwa. Anu muvuabu benze kumpala, “bakela meji ne: bavua bamona nyuma kampanda.”​—Luka 24:36, 37; Matayi 14:25-27.

Bua Yezu kubajadikila ne: kavua tshilengulengu anyi tshintu kampanda tshivuabu belela meji, kadi bu muvuaye ne mubidi wa buntu, wakabaleja bianza biende ne makasa ende wamba ne: “Bua tshinyi nudi nupampakana? Bua tshinyi dielakana ndijuke mu mioyo yenu? Tangilayi bianza bianyi ne makasa anyi, ne: mmeme; ndengayi, numone, bualu nyuma katu ne munyinyi ne mifuba bu binudi nummona nabi to.” (Luka 24:36-39) Bakasanka bikole ne kukemabu, kadi batshivua anu belakana bua kuitaba.

Bu muvuaye musue kabidi bua kubambuluisha bua bajadike ne: mmuntu mulelela, wakabebeja  ne: “Nudi ne tshintu tshia kudia muaba au anyi?” Wakitaba mushipa muosha ne kuwudiaye. Pashishe kuambaye ne: “Aa mmêyi amvua nnuambila pantshivua nenu [kumpala kua lufu luanyi], ne: malu onso avuabu bafunde bua bualu buanyi mu Mikenji ya Mose, mu mifundu ya Baprofete ne mu Misambu adi ne bua kukumbana.”​—Luka 24:41-44.

Yezu wakambuluisha Keleopa ne muena diende bua kumvua Mifundu, mpindieu udi wenza nunku bua bantu bonso badi muaba au wamba ne: “Bakafunda nunku: Kristo uvua ne bua kukenga, ne kujuka ku lufu dituku disatu, ne bavua ne bua kuyisha mu bisamba bionso dinyingalala bua mpekatu bua difuidibua luse bua mpekatu mu dîna diende, kubangila mu Yelushalema. Nudi ne bua kuikala bantemu ba malu aa.”​—Luka 24:46-48.

Mupostolo Tomase kavuaku to bua kabingila kampanda. Mu matuku akalonda, bantu bakuabu bakamuambila ne disanka ne: “Tudi bamone Mukalenge!” Tomase wakabandamuna ne: “Meme tshiyi mumone bimanyinu bia misonso mu bianza biende, tshiyi mubueje munu wanyi mu bimanyinu bia misonso abi ne tshiyi mubueje tshianza tshianyi mu lubadi luende, tshiakuitabuja nansha kakese.”​—Yone 20:25.

Matuku muanda mukulu pashishe, bayidi bavua badisangishe kabidi muaba kampanda bakanga bibi, kadi musangu eu Tomase uvuaku. Yezu udi ubapatukila munkatshi muabu ne muikale ne mubidi wetu wa mashi ne mâyi eu, udi ubela muoyo wamba ne: “Ditalala dikale nenu.” Yezu udi utangila Tomase umuambila ne: “Ela munu webe muaba eu, tangila bianza bianyi, angata tshianza tshiebe, tshibueja mu lubadi luanyi, ne lekela mpata, kadi itabuja.” Tomase wakakema wamba ne: “Mukalenge wanyi ne Nzambi wanyi!” (Yone 20:26-28) Bushuwa mpindieu Tomasa mmutuishibue ne: Yezu udi ne muoyo bu muleji mpala wa Yehowa Nzambi.

Yezu udi wamba ne: “Udi muitabuje bualu udi mummone anyi? Ba diakalenga mbadi bitabuja nansha kabayi bamone.”​—Yone 20:29.
