ell, I would tend to assume that "beginning with Moses and all the
prophets ... all the scriptures" in Luke 24:27 refers to the same books
as "the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms ... the scriptures"
in Luke 24:44-45. I doubt if this is intended to exclude Proverbs, Job,
Chronicles, Ezra-Nehemiah and the Megillot. And the same may be true of
e.g. Luke 16:31, although the reference here to "*hear* Moses and the
prophets" may be an explicit allusion to what was read in the synagogue
(and so be relevant to the thread on Haftarot). But as you say we can't
be sure.
