The last day up to the crucifixion

  • PER357 The Death of the Messiah Jesus

    Pericope PER357 analyzes the death of Jesus on the cross at Golgotha, on Friday, April 1, AD 33, around 3 p.m., drawing on the four Gospel accounts. Matthew and Mark are very close; Luke reports the last words of Jesus and the reaction of the centurion; John, a direct witness, gives details of the events after his death and their prophetic fulfillment. The article includes a precise chronology of the three days and three nights according to the Jewish calendar.

    Deuteronomy 21.22-23 (King James Version) :
    And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree:Noteaccursed…: Heb. the curse of GodHis body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (for he that is hanged is accursed of God;) that thy land be not defiled, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

  • CTD045 Did the centurion come to Jesus in person?

    The article examines a contradiction between Matthew and Luke concerning the encounter between Jesus and the centurion at Capernaum. Matthew describes a direct encounter, while Luke mentions intermediaries. The differences are explained by the principle of representation, the progression of events, and differing editorial styles. These variations do not alter the substance of the accounts.

    Matthew 8.5-13 (King James Version) :
    And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

Miracles

  • MIR012 Healing of the centurion's servant

    This article explores the healing of the centurion's servant, as recounted in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. The centurion demonstrates exceptional faith, hoping for healing through Jesus' word. The accounts differ in the details of their interaction, highlighting the centurion’s humility and respectability and Jesus’ compassion.

    Luke 7.1-10 (King James Version) :
    Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.
