The darkness surrounding them serves as a contrast, emphasizing the divine nature of the apparition.

The apostles, initially unaware of Jesus' identity, are overcome with emotion when he reveals himself. This encounter symbolizes the power of faith and the transformative nature of Christ's resurrection.
