Charles Spurgeon Commentary Luke 24:16-17

"But their eyes were holden that they should not know him. And he said unto them, What communications are these that ye have one with another, as ye walk? And they stood still, looking sad." — Luke 24:16-17 (ASV)

But their eyes were holden that they should not know him. (Luke 24:16)

And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad? (Luke 24:17)

The first part of that question some professors might be ashamed to answer: "What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another as ye walk?" It is not always that all Sunday talk is Sabbath talk—not always that we converse as we should upon the things of God. We are, many of us, blameworthy here.
