In the context of <a href="/luke/24.htm">Luke 24</a>, this is part of the narrative where the disciples are sharing the news of Jesus' resurrection. The act of "saying" here is significant as it reflects the oral tradition of passing down important events and teachings in the early Christian community.<p><b>“The Lord has indeed risen</b><br>This statement is central to Christian faith, affirming the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The resurrection is a fulfillment of Jesus' own predictions (e.g., <a href="/luke/9-22.htm">Luke 9:22</a>) and Old Testament prophecies (e.g., <a href="/psalms/16-10.htm">Psalm 16:10</a>). It serves as the cornerstone of Christian doctrine, signifying victory over sin and death. The use of "indeed" emphasizes the certainty and truth of the event, countering any doubts or disbelief.<p><b>and has appeared to Simon!”</b><br>Simon refers to Simon Peter, one of Jesus' closest disciples. The appearance to Peter is significant as it highlights Peter's restoration after his denial of Jesus (<a href="/luke/22-54.htm">Luke 22:54-62</a>). This personal encounter underscores Peter's role as a leader in the early church (<a href="/matthew/16-18.htm">Matthew 16:18</a>). The mention of Peter specifically also aligns with <a href="/1_corinthians/15-5.htm">1 Corinthians 15:5</a>, where Paul notes that Jesus appeared to Cephas (Peter) first, indicating the importance of this witness in the early Christian testimony.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The Lord (Jesus Christ)</a></b><br>Central figure of the Christian faith, who was crucified, buried, and rose again on the third day, fulfilling the prophecies of the Old Testament.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/s/simon_peter.htm">Simon Peter</a></b><br>One of Jesus' closest disciples, known for his strong faith and occasional impulsiveness.

It occupies, however, a prominent place in those which St. Paul enumerates (<a href="/1_corinthians/15-5.htm" title="And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:">1Corinthians 15:5</a>), and takes its place among the phenomena which indicates St. Paul's acquaintance with the substance of St. Luke's Gospel. What passed at the meeting we can only reverently imagine. Before the Passion, the Lord had "turned and looked" on Peter with a glance of tender and sorrowful reproof (<a href="/luke/22-61.htm" title="And the Lord turned, and looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, Before the cock crow, you shall deny me thrice.">Luke 22:61</a>).
