What does the Bible say about Jesus showing his feet?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus showed His feet to His disciples to identify Himself as the suffering Savior, providing assurance of His resurrection.

In Luke 24:36-40, Jesus appeared to His frightened disciples after His resurrection and showed them His hands and feet as proof of His identity. The scars from His crucifixion served not only as evidence that He was indeed the risen Christ, but also as a profound reminder of His suffering for humanity's sins. His feet, pierced from the nails, symbolize His vicarious suffering and the redemption He accomplished for His people. By asking them to behold His feet, Jesus was inviting them to remember the agony He endured for their redemption and to understand that He is the suffering Savior who now offers peace and assurance in times of fear and trouble.
