Luke 21:37–22:6
The Lamb of God moves toward sacrifice while human conspiracy advances.
37 Every day Jesus was teaching in the temple, and every night he would go out and spend the night on the mountain that is called Olivet.
38 All the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.
1 Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching.
2 The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people.
3 Satan entered into Judas, who was also called Iscariot, who was counted with the twelve.
4 He went away, and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them.
5 They were glad, and agreed to give him money.
6 He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.
The Lamb of God moves toward sacrifice while human conspiracy advances.
To show the deliberate progression toward Christ’s betrayal under divine sovereignty.
The Widow’s Gift, Jerusalem’s Fall, and Watchfulness before the Son of Man
Because Jesus’ words outlast the temple, the city, and the heavens, disciples must give themselves wholly to God, endure persecution, discern the times, and watch prayerfully for the coming Son of Man.
