Emmaus
Emmaus (Greek: Ἐμμαούς, (ラテン語:Emmaus); ) is a town mentioned in the Gospel of Luke from the New Testament. Luke reports that Jesus appeared, after his death and resurrection, before two of his disciples while they were walking on the road to Emmaus.〔Holy Bible: St. Luke 24: 13-35; ''Encyclopedia Judaica'', Keter Publishing House, Jerusalem, 1972, "Emmaus," Vol. 6, pp. 726-727〕
Its geographical identification is not clear, several locations having been suggested throughout history. We only know that it was connected by a road with Jerusalem; the distance given by Luke varies in different manuscripts and the figure given has been made even more ambiguous by interpretations.〔
==Name==
The place name Emmaus is relatively common in classical sources about the Levant and is usually derived through Greek and Latin from the Semitic word for "warm spring", whose Hebrew form is ''hamma'' or ''hammat'' (חמת). There are many sites with the name Hama, Hamath and variations thereof in the ancient and present-day Middle East.〔http://biblehub.net/search.php?q=hamath〕
In the case of one possible candidate for Luke's Emmaus, namely modern Motza, another evolution of the name has been suggested (see there).
