Luke 24:40-43 And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet. And while they still disbelieved for joy and were marveling, he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?” They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he took it and ate before them.
First, Jesus told them. They were afraid. Next He showed them. They still disbelieved. Finally, He demonstrates the reality of His physical resurrection. That's what they needed - to see that this really is the Jesus Who said He was the Messiah. He would need to be one of us, yet different from us - holy, sinless, and powerful enough to defeat death and the sin that causes it. One meal is all it takes.
