Summary/Abstract: The text analyzes the pericope from the Gospel of Luke (Luke 24:13-25) about the meeting on the road to Emmaus. It is interpreted here as a special lesson of faith that the resurrected Jesus teaches his grieving and doubting apostles. Thus, according to the author of this analysis, it is a kind of performance through which Jesus shows the radically illusory nature of sensory testimony in such matters, and proves that faith is never obvious by its very nature, which does not mean it loses its consolatory value.
