Msg #2215 Before Easter
What The Bible Says
Good Samaritan's Penny Pulpit by Pastor Ed Rice
It would be remiss for a Christian to walk through this week of Christ's passion without examining the events of each day. Events begin in Bethany six days before Passover as detailed in John 12. In their Sabbath day's “holy convocation” the chief priests consulted (vr.10-11) … Oh how they hated the Son of God. On Palm Sunday the multitude cried “Hosanna to the son of David,” but as they heralded him as Messiah and King they only considered him “Jesus the prophet of Nazareth.” Many do that today.
On the 10th of the month the Passover lamb was separated from the flock and examined until the 14th , when it was slain (Exod 12). Our Passover Lamb was “separated from the flock” in that triumphal entry on Palm Sunday (Mt.21, Mrk.11, Lu.19, Jn.12). He entered the temple and overthrew the tables of money changers (Mt.21:12). After cursing a fig tree on Monday the 11th, he was back in the temple teaching early in the morning and he again cast out the money changers (Mrk.11:12-15). On Tuesday the 12th, early, Peter notices the cursed tree, and Jesus teaches them, “Have faith in God” (Mrk.11:20-22). “He taught daily in the temple” during this three day examination of the Passover Lamb (Lu.19:47, 22:53), and on Wednesday, the 13th, he washed feet, initiated the Lord's Supper, and prayed in the garden. On Thursday, the 14th of Abib, that fickle and impassioned multitude cried, “Let him be crucified” (Mt.27:22). Its important that one understand all that was in the week of his passion. The day of his resurrection shines so much brighter when we know how and why he died. In an Easter Sunrise service we will begin a Resurrection celebration, but we dare not miss these accounts that led up to his resurrection.
