Luke24:13
13 And behold two of them went that fame day, to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.
Who those two were is variously guessed; that the name of the one was Cleophas, appeareth from v. 18. Some will have the other to have been Luke, but he in the beginning of his Gospel distinguisheth himself from Eye-Witnesses, ch. 1. v. 2. Some will have it to have been Nathaniel, others will have it to have been Simon, from v. 34. and 1 Cor. 17.5. But these things are so incertain, that all the instruction we can learn from them, is the Vanity and incertainty of Traditions. This Emmaus was from Ierusalem, about 60 furlongs, which make seven Miles, and an half according to our computation.
