SCRIPTURE COMMENTARY #634
And it came to pass, whilst he was at table with them, he took bread and blessed and brake and gave to them.
And their eyes were opened: and they knew him. And he vanished out of their sight. And they said one to the other: "Was not our heart burning within us, whilst he spoke in the way and opened to us the scriptures?" (Luke 24:30-32)
OUR HEARTS OUGHT TO BURN WITHIN US each time we find ourselves in a church, in the Presence of our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, and still more when we receive Him in Holy Communion.
[From 'A Practical Commentary on Holy Scripture' by Bishop Knecht, D.D.]
(1899 Douay-Rheims Bible)
