Jesus Tell Date of Crucifixion

Spring A. D. 30

Tuesday

Mt. Olives

God, who can read hearts, must have picked Judas as the perfect person to be the disciple who in the end betrays Jesus.

He saw the miracles, he heard the accurate prediction that one of the twelve would betray Jesus and yet his heart was so hard that he could not resist playing the role of betrayer.

Judas, just as the Pharisees, has no kick coming in being separated forever from God's presence.

 

Matthew

Mark

Luke

 

Mat 26:1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto his disciples,

Mat 26:2 Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.

Mat 26:3 Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

Mat 26:4 And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.

Mat 26:5 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people.

 

 

Mar 14:1 After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death.

Mar 14:2 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people.

 

 

Luk 22:1 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.

Luk 22:2 And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.
