From Background Notes [BN] for April 25th &
26th written by Pastor Bob Brown:
He comes to them much as he comes to
men and women today, not always rushing in with an apologetic or overwhelming
with an argument. Instead, he gradually works his way into our consciousness...
...planting suggestive seeds here and there,
until finally, at the right moment, he discloses his presence and assures us
with his love. I am reminded here of C.S. Lewis' own conversion, and how, in
his own words, God "surprised him with joy.” So too, Jesus speaks with
Cleopas and his companion, waiting for an opening, probing for a connection,
and seeking a conversation. [BN,4]
