Post Resurrection Reading:
The Third Day

“About Jesus of Nazareth,” they replied.
“He was a prophet,
powerful in word and deed
before God and all the people.

The chief priests and our rulers
handed him over to be sentenced to death,
and they crucified him;

but we had hoped that he was the one
who was going to redeem Israel.
And what is more,
it is the third day since all this took place.

In addition,
some of our women amazed us.
They went to the tomb early this morning

but didn’t find his body.
They came and told us
that they had seen a vision of angels,
who said he was alive.

Then some of our companions went to the tomb
and found it just as the women had said,
but they did not see Jesus.”

He said to them,
“How foolish you are,
and how slow to believe
all that the prophets have spoken!

Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things
and then enter his glory?”
 
And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets,
he explained to them what was said
in all the Scriptures concerning himself.
(Luke 24:19-27).

This is how we know what love is:
Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.
And we ought to lay down our lives
for our brothers and sisters.
(1 John 3:16 NIV)

Watch the triumphal entry of the donkey-riding king through the eyes of Marcus Longinus, the centurion charged with keeping the streets from erupting into open rebellion.

Look behind the scenes at the political plotting of King Herod, known as the scheming Fox for his ruthless shrewdness.

Get a front-row seat to the confrontation between the Jewish high priest Caiaphas and the Roman governor Pontius Pilate.

Understand as never before the horror of the decision to save a brutal terrorist in order to condemn the peaceful Jew to death.
