In the disciples’ story on their way to Emmaus, all elements of the celebration of the Eucharist are present. There is the entrance of the celebrant, then the Liturgy of the Word with the homily, and finally, ‘the breaking of bread.’ The disciples’ eyes opened only at the time of the Eucharistic communion, and they realized that the Risen One was in their midst. But without the Word, they would not have come to discover the Lord in the Eucharistic bread. All must experience the encounter with the Risen One. In the communitarian celebration, they can contemplate him through the sacramental signs, but when they recognize him, he does not disappear, even if the physical eyes cannot see him. A final important element of this passage: the disciples on the road to Emmaus, as soon as they recognize the Lord, they rush to announce their discovery to their brothers and sisters and with them proclaim their faith: “The Lord is truly risen.”
