A.T. Robertson Commentary Luke 24:14

"And they communed with each other of all these things which had happened." — Luke 24:14 (ASV)

They communed (ωμιλουν). Imperfect active of ομιλεω, old and common verb (from ομιλος, in company with). In the N.T. only here (and verse 15) and Ac 20:11; 24:26. Our word homiletics is derived from this word for preaching was at first largely conversational in style and not declamatory.
