Holy Week and Passion

Why Did Jesus Curse the Fig Tree?
Dr. Ray Pritchard
179
The cursing of the fig tree may seem odd to us, but three key insights will help you understand this story.
The Symbolism of the Last Supper?
Charles Stanley
142
The Last Supper, which took place hours before the Lord’s crucifixion—was a Seder (Passover observance). Previously, the feast’s symbols had only pointed back to the Hebrews’ redemption from Egypt. But that Thursday night, Jesus revealed the messianic significance of two symbols: bread and wine.
A Time Line of the Passion Week

123
A time line and chronology of the Passion Week that includes Gregorian dates, First Century Jewish day/night cycles, and Galilean Jew cycles.

The Crucifixion

How Does the Death of Jesus Save?
Chuck Swindoll
204
What does Christ's death on the cross have to do with salvation? Isn't it just a form of divine child abuse?
Why Did the Veil in the Temple Rip?
Greg Laurie
161
In the inner court of the temple in Jerusalem, in the Holy of Holies, was the Ark of the Covenant. That was where the high priest would go once a year to offer atonement for the sins of the people. A veil, a very thick, woven curtain, separated the Holy of Holies from the rest of the temple.
Did Jesus Descend into Hell?
Randy Alcorn
151
We know very little about where Jesus was for three days. One must be careful not to read too much detail into a parable or story.

Last Words

Why Did Jesus Say "Woman, Behold Your Son"?
Matthew Henry
137
Jesus was not so much taken up with a sense of His sufferings as to forget His friends, all whose concerns He bore.
What Was Finished?
Dr. Ray Pritchard
113
Jesus did not say, "I am finished," for that would imply that he died defeated and exhausted. Rather, he cried out "It is finished."
From Sin to Forgiveness to Paradise?
J.C. Ryle
90
The man whom our Lord saved was a wicked sinner at the point of death with nothing in his past life to recommend him, and nothing notable in his present position but a humble prayer.

Resurrection

Could Jesus Have Survived the Crucifixion?
Greg Laurie
277
According to some critics, Jesus never really died. Instead, He went into a deep coma or "swoon" from the severe pain and trauma of the Crucifixion.
Did the Disciples Steal Jesus's Body?
Alfred Edersheim
196
The members of the Sanhedrin posted guards at Jesus's tomb for fear the disciples would steal the body. But they shouldn't have been worried.
Is the Resurrection a Myth?
Hank Hanegraaff
136
How can we know beyond any doubt that Jesus really rose from the dead?

Ascension

What is Jesus Doing Now?
Charles Stanley
95
Have you ever wondered what Jesus is doing, now that He has ascended to heaven?
Did Jesus Shed His Humanity at the Ascension?
Randy Alcorn
59
One remarkable thing about the ascension is that it affirms Christ’s physical body went into Heaven following his resurrection.
Does Jesus Still Have His Wounds?
G. Campbell Morgan
53
It is impossible to omit from that ascended and reigning One the wounds He bears.
