Note 1 topic: writing-newevent
ἰδοὺ
behold
Luke uses the word behold to introduce a new event in the story. If your language has a similar expression that it uses for this same purpose, you could use it here.
Note 2 topic: writing-background
δύο ἐξ αὐτῶν ἐν αὐτῇ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, ἦσαν πορευόμενοι εἰς κώμην ἀπέχουσαν
two of them at same the day were going to /a/_village being_away
Luke provides this background information to help readers understand what happens next. Alternate translation: “there were two disciples who were going to a distant village on that same day”
Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns
δύο ἐξ αὐτῶν
two of them
The word them refers to Jesus’ disciples, but not specifically to the apostles, since at the end of this episode, these two men return to Jerusalem and report to the apostles. Alternate translation: “two of Jesus’ disciples”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐν αὐτῇ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ
at same the day
Alternate translation: “on the same day when the women found that the tomb was empty”
σταδίους ἑξήκοντα ἀπὸ Ἰερουσαλήμ, ᾗ ὄνομα Ἐμμαοῦς
stadiums sixty from Jerusalem ˱to˲_whose name_‹is› Emmaus
It may be helpful to make this a separate sentence. Alternate translation: “The name of the village was Emmaus, and it was 60 stadia from Jerusalem”
Note 5 topic: translate-names
Ἐμμαοῦς
Emmaus
Emmaus is the name of a village.
Note 6 topic: translate-bdistance
σταδίους ἑξήκοντα
stadiums sixty
The word stadia is the plural of “stadium,” a Roman measurement of distance equivalent to about 185 meters or a little over 600 feet. Alternate translation: “about eleven kilometers” or “about seven miles”
24:13 two of Jesus’ followers: Jesus had many disciples in addition to the Twelve (see 10:1, 17). Nothing else is known of Cleopas (24:18) or the other disciple (who may have been his wife). They were probably returning from celebrating the Passover in Jerusalem.
