## Luke 24:45-46 in Context (Verses 42–49 KJV)
 
 [42 ](/kjv/luke/24/42) And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.
 
 [43 ](/kjv/luke/24/43) And he took *it*, and did eat before them.
 
 [44 ](/kjv/luke/24/44) And he said unto them, These *are* the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and *in* the prophets, and *in* the psalms, concerning me.
 
 [45 ](/kjv/luke/24/45) Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
 
 [46 ](/kjv/luke/24/46) And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
 
 [47 ](/kjv/luke/24/47) And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
 
 [48 ](/kjv/luke/24/48) And ye are witnesses of these things.
 
 [49 ](/kjv/luke/24/49) ¶ And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
 
[Luke 23](/kjv/luke/23) [John 1](/kjv/john/1)
