Jesus: On This Tuesday — The Long Day of Confrontations | Day 4

From TED Talking Ted

On this Tuesday.


The longest day of Holy Week.


Chief priests. Pharisees. Herodians.

Sadducees. Scribes.


Every faction in Jerusalem lines up to trap him —

one by one.


He silences them all.


Then he turns and delivers seven woes —

the most devastating public indictment

of religious leadership ever spoken.


Seven times:

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites."


Then he sits down quietly across from the temple treasury.


Many rich people are putting in large sums.


A poor widow comes and drops in two tiny coins

worth very little.


And he calls his disciples over.


"Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more

into the treasury than all the others."


That evening on the Mount of Olives,

the disciples ask about the end of the age.

He answers at length.


Then the sheep and the goats.


Then — two days until Passover.


And in Caiaphas's courtyard,

the machinery of the crucifixion is quietly engaged.


This is Day 4 of Jesus: On This Day —

a nine-episode audio series reading the actual words

of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John

in the order the events of Holy Week occurred.


Not commentary. Not a sermon.

The text itself. Word for word.

The Gospels go quiet.

We don't know where he is or what he does.

But Judas makes his move.
