In Gospel of Luke, in the Easter afternoon account of the two disciples on the road to Emmaus who met the risen Christ — one was Cleophas, the other unnamed.

Many Bible scholars think the unnamed discipe was in fact St. Luke.

**Many Bible scholars think the unnamed discipe was in fact St. Luke.**

This is one of my favorite Gospel stories. I was not aware of the possibility of one of them being Luke. I guess I just always thought they were both unnamed.

What is amazing to me is just as Christ broke the bread, he disappeared. A vivid reminder of the Holy Eucharist and the Bread of Life/Body of Christ.
