Contextual Overview
13And behold, two of them were going on during that day to a village, being sixty stadia distant from Jerusalem, the name of which [is] Emmaus, 14and they were conversing with one another about all these things that have happened. 15And it came to pass in their conversing and reasoning together, that Jesus Himself, having come near, was going on with them, 16and their eyes were restrained so as not to know Him, 17and He said to them, "What [are] these words that you exchange with one another, walking, and you are sad?" 18And one, whose name was Cleopas, answering, said to Him, "Are You alone visiting Jerusalem and have not known the things having come to pass in it in these days?" 19And He said to them, "What things?" And they said to Him, "The things about Jesus of Nazareth, who became a man—a prophet—powerful in deed and word, before God and all the people, 20how also the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him up to a judgment of death, and crucified Him; 21and we were hoping that it is He who is about to redeem Israel, and also with all these things, this third day is passing today since these things happened. 22And certain of our women also astonished us, coming early to the tomb,

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when they found not his body,.... In the sepulchre, as they expected, and so could not do what they intended:
they came; they returned from the sepulchre with great haste, and in a very great fright, and came to the disciples, where they were assembled;
saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels. The Syriac and Persic versions add, "there"; at the sepulchre, for there were two of them at least, if not three; see Luke 24:4. They not only reported, that they could not find the body of Jesus, but also that they had seen some angels: or the sense may be, that they told them, that though they could not find the dead body of their Lord, yet they had seen him alive, as they did by the way, as they were returning, Matthew 28:9 and also that a vision of angels had appeared to them:
which said that he was alive; see Luke 24:5. So that it was not a deception of their sight, they certainly saw both Christ and the angels; and were assured from their testimony, as well as by their own eyes and ears, that he was certainly risen: now, though this was so clear a point, and so well attested, the disciples knew not how to believe it; they were perplexed about it; they could neither receive it, nor discredit it; they hoped it might be so, but feared it was not.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Certain women - See Matthew 28:1-7; John 20:12.
A vision of angels - An appearance of angels, or they had seen angels. See John 20:12.
