FROM PALM SUNDAY TO EASTER (Part 3)

FROM PALM SUNDAY TO EASTER (Part 3)

TUESDAY —Day of Controversy and Parables

Matt. 21:23–24:51; Mark 11:27–13:37; Luke 20:1–21:36

In Jerusalem, Jesus evaded the traps set by the priests.

On the Mount of Olives overlooking Jerusalem (Tuesday afternoon, exact location unknown), Jesus taught in parables and warned the people against the Pharisees. He predicted the destruction of Herod’s great temple and told his disciples about future events, including his own return. 

WEDNESDAY —Day of Rest

Not mentioned in the Gospels. The Scriptures do not mention this day, but the counting of the days (Mark 14:1; John 12:1) seems to indicate that there was another day of which the Gospels record nothing.
