Our Need Of The Lord’S Healing Unveiling His Death
OUR NEED OF THE LORD'S HEALING
UNVEILING HIS DEATH AND RESURRECTION THE THIRD TIME
While the Man-Savior was making the long journey from Galilee to Jerusalem (Luke 9:51— 19:27), He spoke to His disciples about many things. In Luke 18:31 He took the twelve aside in order to speak a private word to them. This word spoken privately to the disciples concerned His going to Jerusalem to die.
In verses 31 through 33 this word is recorded in some detail: "Behold we are going up to Jeru salem, and all things will be accomplished which have been written through the prophets regard ing the Son of Man. For He will be delivered up to the Gentiles, and will be mocked and outra geously treated and spit upon; and when they have scourged Him, they will kill Him; and on the third day He will rise." It is significant that in verse 31 the Lord does not say, "Behold I am going up to Jerusalem"; instead, He says, "Behold we are going up to Jerusalem."
