In this message, we look closely at Passover, Passion Week, and the timeline of Jesus’ final days before the cross.
Exodus 12 gives God’s instructions for the first Passover lamb. A clear foreshadowing of Jesus, the Lamb of God.
We explore how Palm Monday, not Palm Sunday, fits the biblical timeline of Passion Week, aligning with Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem on the tenth day of Nisan, just as the lambs were chosen.
From Zacchaeus’ salvation and Bartimaeus’ healing in Jericho, to the Triumphal Entry (Mark 11; Zechariah 9:9), Jesus fulfilled prophecy with precision.
On Tuesday, Jesus cursed the fig tree, symbolizing Israel’s spiritual fruitlessness and then cleansed the Temple, confronting corruption and hypocrisy in the priesthood.
This message reminds us that Jesus entered Jerusalem not to be crowned by men, but to be rejected, crucified, and raised. God’s true Passover Lamb for the salvation of the world
