Contextual Overview

13 The same day two of them went to a village named Emmaus, which was distant about threescore furlongs from Jerusalem: 14 and their conversation ran upon all that had lately happened. 15 now while they were conferring and debating together, Jesus himself join'd them and walk'd along with them. 16 but their eyes were affected so as not to discern who he was. 17 and he said to them, what is the subject of your debate in the way, and why do you look so sad? 18 one of them, Cleopas by name, reply'd, are you such a stranger in Jerusalem as not to know what has so lately happen'd there? 19 what about? said he. why, about Jesus the Nazarean, said they, who was a prophet, eminently recommended, by his doctrine and his works, to the approbation of God and of all the people; 20 and of his being deliver'd up by our chief priests and magistrates to be condemn'd to die, whom they actually crucified: 21 though we expected he would have been the Messiah, that was to deliver Israel: and besides all this, it is now three days since these things were done. 22 'tis true, some women of our company threw us into a surprize: for going to the sepulchre early in the morning,

1 Timothy 6:2
let them not treat their christian masters, on pretence of being their brethren, with less respect: but be the more obsequious, because they are believers, and deserve to be belov'd, for the kind provision they make for them. let this be the subject of your instructions, and exhortation.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they rose up the same hour,.... Though it was now evening, and the day was spent and gone; and notwithstanding what business they might have to do at Emmaus, about which they came, and even might not have made an end of eating, or sufficiently refreshed themselves; and though they had had a walk of sixty furlongs that afternoon, yet being big with this appearance of Christ to them, and in haste to impart the joyful news to their fellow disciples, they immediately rose up from table:

and returned to Jerusalem; the same night, from whence they had come that day:

and found the eleven gathered together; at a certain house known to these two, and who met together in the night season, for the sake of privacy, and for fear of the Jews, and who were now up, though it was late: these are called "eleven", because Judas was now gone from them, and dead; and this being their whole number, it is used, though every one might not be present, as particularly Thomas was not; see John 20:19

and them that were with them; the seventy disciples, and other believers, both men and women; see Acts 1:15.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The same hour - Though it was late, and they had stopped, as they thought, for the night, yet such was their joy that they hastened to tell it to their companions and friends. This was natural and proper, and it shows how quick and ready they who have found the Saviour are to tell it to others. Compare John 1:41-45. Young converts to Christ “should hasten” to tell their joy, and should not shrink at self-denial to proclaim to others what God hath done for the soul, Psalms 66:16.

“My lips and cheerful heart, prepare.

To make his mercies known:

Come, ye that fear my God, and hear.

The wonders he hath done.

“When on my head huge sorrows fell,

I sought his heavenly aid;

He saved my sinking soul from hell,

And death’s eternal shade.”

The eleven - The eleven apostles. Judas was now dead. This shows that the two that went to Emmaus were not apostles.
