Lesson 4244

 (Lesson 4244)(09-04-23) Mark 9:30-32

    “ And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it. For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day. But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask.”

    In today’s quote, Jesus again told His apostles that He would be turned over to the Jewish hierarchy and killed only to rise again the third day. The apostles didn’t understand what Jesus was talking about but were afraid to ask.

    The death, burial and resurrection of Jesus was necessary to “justify” the sins of all who will put their faith in Him.~
