Matthew 20:17-19 (NIV)
Jesus
Predicts His Death a Third Time
17 Now Jesus was going up to Jerusalem.
On the way, he took the Twelve aside and said to them, 18 “We
are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over
to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. They will condemn him to
death 19 and will hand him over to the Gentiles to
be mocked and flogged and crucified. On the third day he will be
raised to life!”
May this Easter bring you rest, an abiding sense of peace in a very troubled world, and the everlasting deep-seated joy of knowing the one who died for you to give you true life.
