Introduction

Matthew 21 initiates the last week of the life of Jesus Christ the Messiah!

Jerusalem was to be the end. He never ever leaves the vicinity of Jerusalem. This is it. He dies in the city. This is the end of Jesus’ 33 plus years. Thirty years of obscurity, three-plus years of ministry, it all ends here. This is the end of the pilgrimage. The goal of the Lord's life and ministry is about to be reached.  In just 6 more days he would be crucified for the sins of the world!

I  The Messianic Preparations

1. Jesus and the disciples drew near Jerusalem [Verse 1]

(To Bethphage at the Mount of Olives)

On Saturday, 6 days before the Passover, as they approached the city of Jerusalem, Jesus stops at the little village of Bethany:

1. Located 2 miles east of Jerusalem on the backside of the Mount of Olives.
2. A village of several hundred people
3. The hometown of three dear friends - Mary, Martha and Lazarus.

John 12:1-3  “Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom He had raised from the dead.  There they made Him a supper; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with Him.  Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil.”
