Luke24:41

Believed not for joy. Their joy was so great, and his appearance was so sudden and unexpected, that they were bewildered, and still sought more evidence of the truth of what they wished to believe. This is nature. We have similar expressions in our language. The news is too good to be true; or, I cannot believe it; it is too much for me.

Any meat. This word does not mean meat in our sense of it, but in the old English sense, denoting anything to eat.

(c) "believed" Gen 45:26 (d) "Have ye" Jn 21:5
