English Bible translations are ~~almost~~ evenly divided on whether to translate as "vanish" or "disappear" the departure of Jesus from the two disciples. A third, less common but perhaps more precise, approach is to translate [[Luke 17-24 (Translated)#24:31|Luke 24:31]] as "became unseen."<ref>https://www.biblehub.com/luke/24-31.htm</ref>

The pivotal verse is imprecisely translated. English Bible translations are evenly divided on whether to translate as "vanish" or "disappear" the departure of Jesus from the two disciples. A third, less common but perhaps more precise, approach is to translate [[Luke 17-24 (Translated)#24:31|Luke 24:31]] as "became unseen."<ref>https://www.biblehub.com/luke/24-31.htm</ref>

The Greek word ἄφαντος, which is used only once in the entire Bible, means "invisible". It implies that [[Jesus]] did not leave but became hidden. That is consistent with modern [[quantum mechanics]] and awareness, as Jesus reverted to a different physical state upon awareness of the observers. Hence the clause is properly translated as "This opened their eyes, and they recognized Him; whereupon He transformed to a hidden presence."
