Hour 16 The Final Week
Friday or Wednesday?
• “After the Sabbaths…” Matthew 28:1
[Jewish year includes seven additional sabbaths known as high Sabbaths, in addition to the Saturday Sabbaths.]
• “Six days before the Passover came to Bethany…” Jn 12:1
(More than a “Sabbath day’s journey” from Jericho.)
• “3 days and 3 nights in the heart of the earth…” Mt 12:40
The Final Week of Christ’s Ministry on Earth
• We’re just delving into 1 week and our problem is that we can’t possibly probe the depth of this 1 week.
• It has significance and meaning that we will spend eternity trying to understand.
• What can we glean from this?
The Agony of Love the Final Week!
Six hours that Jesus spent on our behalf to free us for all of eternity.
Was it Friday or Wednesday?
• There are many good scholars that will support a Friday crucifixion.
• That is the “traditional” view of the church.
• 3 reasons that this is not correct according to scripture.
Reason #1
Nowhere in the Gospels does it assert that Christ was crucified on a Friday.
• When He went from Jericho to Bethany 6 days before Passover, which means that Passover could not be on a Friday, because...because six days before that would be a Shabbat.
Reason #2
Traveling from Jericho to Bethany is more than a Sabbath’s day journey and as an observant Jew He would not violate a Shabbat.
• In another verse, that is the morning we call Easter morning when the women were going to the tomb with their spices and other things.
• So the trip from Jericho to Bethany would be more than a Sabbath’s day journey and on this day such a journey was legally out of the question for a devout Jew, because he would not violate a Shabbat.
Matthew 28:1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
• “After the Sabbaths were passed...”
Your English Bible may or may not notice this but the Greek is very clear that it’s plural.
The Sabbaths were passed that Sunday morning which means there was more than I Sabbath.
Greek
Sabbaton is translated Sabbath
In Strong's Exhaustive Concordance, he states;
The interval between two Sabbaths; likewise the plural in all the above applications -- sabbath (day), of sabbath week.
Sabbath, 4521; sabbaton i.e. the seventh day (of the week)
International Standard Version...“After the Sabbaths,...”
Young's Literal Translation. ...“And on the eve of the Sabbaths,...”
Hebrew
Shabbath, 7676: is translated Sabbath
• On the Jewish calender there are 52 Shabbats, what we call Saturdays.
• There are also 7 high Sabbaths in addition, one of which is the “Feast of Unleavened Bread” the day after Passover.
• Passover itself is not considered a Sabbath but the day after Passover is in the formal reckoning.
• So the fact that Sunday morning there was more than 1 Sabbath passed means that not only Saturday had passed but either Thursday or Friday was the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
• When the Sabbaths were passed, they were free to go to the tomb.
• That is a refutation of a Friday crucifixion.
Reason #3
The third thing is, Jesus himself said,...
Matthew 12:40
For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
The way that’s expressed seems to reject it being simply idiomatic, this was not a fanciful story.
Three days and three nights cannot fit in between Friday evening and Sunday morning, it just doesn’t work.
• “After the Sabbaths were passed...” Matthew 28:1
• “Six days before the Passover (Jesus) came to Bethany…” John 12:1
(More than a Sabbaths day’s from Jericho).
• "three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.” Matthew 12:40
The Final Week
Friday We see Him at Bethany John 12:1
Saturday Triumphal Entry Matthew 21:5, 12,17; Mark 11:7, 11; Luke 19:28
Sunday The Fig tree is cursed Matthew 21:18; Mark 11:12
Monday Conspirators counsel Matthew 26:2; Mark 11:20; Mk 14:1; Luke 22:1
“The plan of the conspirators was not to take Jesus on a holiday because they feared the Romans. Because it would cause an insurrection and the Romans would make them pay.
So, they decided to take Jesus on a non holiday so as not to stir up trouble.
Remember in the Upper Room, Jesus announced to His disciples, that He would be betrayed, He controlled everything. Judas was not going to betray Jesus that night because the next day was Passover. Jesus told Judas, “what you do, do quickly”, that put Judas on the spot. Judas has to do it that night or the word is out and his plans would be foiled.”
Tuesday The Last Supper Matthew 26:17; Mark 14:7, 12;
“between the evenings” Luke 22:7
“We have here the Last Supper which was the Passover meal, “between the evenings” Luke 22:7. That starts at sundown and goes on until sundown the next day, and He will be crucified before sundown the next day.”
This chronology would support a Wednesday crucifixion.
Wednesday The Crucifixion John 19:14,31,42; Mark 15:42; Luke 23:17,54
Thursday The Feast of Unleavened Bread Leviticus 23:4-8
Friday Women prepare spices
Saturday “…and rested...” Luke 23:56;
“after the Sabbaths were passed..” Matthew 28:1
International Standard Version...“After the Sabbaths,...”
Young's Literal Translation. ...“And on the eve of the Sabbaths,...”
The Greek translation says that it is plural.
Sunday He is risen! Matthew 28:11; Mark 16:1; Luke 24:1; John 20:1
The women discover that He is Risen from the dead.
The Triumphal Entry
Zechariah 9:9
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem:
behold, thy King cometh unto thee: He is just, and having salvation; lowly,
and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
Recorded in all four Gospels
• Matthew 21:1-9
• Mark 11:1-10
• Luke 19:29-39
• John 12:12-16.
They are to ....“take to everyone a lamb.”
• The Passover was technically not a Levitical Feast...it was in the home.
• It was to be instituted in the home, but blessed by the Temple.
• Nisan10: Jesus deliberately arranges to fulfill Zechariah 9:9.
• This is the only day He allows them in Jerusalem to proclaim Him King (Luke 19:38).
Luke 19:38 (quoting Psalm 118)
Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in
heaven, and glory in the highest.
Luke 19:39
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, “Master, rebuke thy disciples.”
Why? What for? The Pharisees assure our noticing the significance!
(Hallel Psalm: Psalm 118:26).
• The Pharisees understood that the crowd singing that Psalm was proclaiming Him as the Messiah!
• And they assume that He doesn’t want His disciples blaspheming, assuming that He is God.
• Jesus did not deny not being God nor did He stop the crowd but said...
Luke 19:40
And He answered and said unto them, “I tell you that, if these should hold
their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.”
Jesus held them accountable to recognize this very day. (Lk 19:41-44). This
was the 10th of Nisan, prior to the Passover on the 14th of Nisan, A.D. 32.
The 69 Weeks
The angel Gabriel gave Daniel a prophecy in Daniel 9...
Daniel 9:25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
173,880 days
“the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be ”
• The command to rebuild Jerusalem would be 173,880 days
• As commanded by Artaxerxes March 14, 445 B.C.
• What was the date that Jesus allowed Himself to be proclaimed as King?
Chronology of His Ministry
• Christ’s ministry began in the Fall of 28 A.D.
–Tiberius was appointed: August 19, 14 A.D.
Luke 3:1
–It was in the 15th year of Tiberius, in other words 14 years later
• So it’s 14+14=28, so in 28 A.D. that His ministry began.
• It’s on the 4th Passover (April 6, 32 A.D.) that thus us occurring so that is dateable.
Documented by Sir Robert Anderson, in his classic work in 1894 called “The Coming Prince” .
Judgment Declared
Luke 19:41-44
And when He was come near, He beheld the city, and wept over it, Saying,
If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong
unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes. For the days shall come
upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee
round, and keep thee in on every side, And shall lay thee even with the ground,
and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon
another, because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
Jesus wept over the city, because He expected them to understand Daniel 9, they were suppose to be expecting Him.
“this thy day”
• He knew that 4 days from now that same crowd would be crying out “Crucify Him!”
• Jesus is telling Jerusalem that 38 years later the Roman Legions would lay siege to Jerusalem for about 9 months and slaughter over a million people, another half of a million died from disease and pestilence.
• The Temple caught fire and the gold melted upon the stones, so the Romans had to take it apart stone by stone.
• The Fall of Jerusalem occurred in 70 A.D.
The Interval
Daniel 9:26
And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for
himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city
and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the
end of the war desolations are determined.
• After the 69th, before the 70th:
• “Not for Himself”: nothingness: rejection, substitution.
An interval, or gap, clearly required by verse 26:
• Events described are after the 69th and prior to the 70th week:
• Karat, execution; death penalty (Lev 7:20; Ps 37:9; Prov 2:22).
• Messiah “cut off” (karat = executed);
• The people of “the prince that shall come” = historically, the Romans.
• Thus, the Prince to come will be of the Roman Empire (but NOT necessarily from Europe!)
• The sanctuary will be destroyed, etc. 38 years are included with the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70.
• Over 1970 years have transpired so far.
• “Flood”: diaspora. Titus Vespasian: 38 years later (not 3½!).
The Interval (not to scale):
You and I are dwelling in that 69th Week Interval, before the 70th Week
• The last 7 year period is soon underway.
• Interval also implied: Isa 61:1,2 (re: Lk 4:18-20); Rev 12:5,6. Also:
Isa 54:7; Hos 3:4,5; Amos 9:10,11; (Acts 15:13-18); Micah 5:2,3; Zech
9:9,10; Luke 1:31,32; 21:24
• Interval defined:
• Luke 19:42 until Rom 11:25.
• Until the fullness of the gentiles come in
• At the rapture of the Church
• This interval is the period of the Church, an era kept secret in Old Testament: Matthew 13:34,35; Ephesians 3:5,9
– Born at Pentecost: Colossians 1:18; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Acts 1:5, 11:15-16.
– Prerequisites: Atonement (Matthew 16:18, 21);
• Resurrection (Ephesians 1:20- 23);
• Ascension (Ephesians 4:7-11;
Spiritual gifts given only after ascension).
[Interval implied in 24 references] “Israel” is never used of the Church (73X).
• Galatians 6:16 is misunderstood, by ignoring the kai in the Greek which clearly distinguishes the two groups.
• It seems that the Lord deals with Israel and the Church mutually exclusively.
[Example: Chess Clock]
The Last Supper
Timing?
“Not on a feast day” Mt 26:5
Jesus is in charge, He’s controlling the timing
Why?
• Because there are hundreds of specifications that have been and will be fulfilled in the next few hours, every detail has been laid down in advance.
• To Judas, He says, “What thou doest do quickly” John 13:27
• “Whom seek ye?” John 18:4, 7
• “I Am!” Jesus says this 7 times
• “Let these go their way” John 18:8
[Who’s in charge here?]
Jesus is giving the guards orders, He approached them.
The crucifixion is not a tragedy it’s a triumph, it’s what He came to do.
Six Trials
• Jewish Trials:
Jesus before Annas;
Jesus before Caiaphas;
Jesus before the Sanhedrin.
• Roman Trials:
Jesus before Pilate;
Jesus before Herod;
Jesus before Pilate again.
The Illegalities of every Trial
• The binding of a prisoner before he was condemned was illegal.
• Judges participated in the arrest of the accused, that was illegal.
• No legal transactions, including a trial, could be conducted at night. This is a kangaroo court as we would call it today.
• While an acquittal could be pronounced the same day, any other verdict required a majority of two, and had to come on a subsequent day.
The only time Jesus makes a statement is when He is under Oath.
• No prisoner could be convicted on his own evidence.
The evidence that He claimed was that He was the Creator.
• It was the duty of a judge to see that the interest of the accused was fully protected.
• The use of violence during the trial was apparently unopposed by the judges.
• The judges sought false witnesses against Jesus.
• In a Jewish court the accused was to be assumed innocent until proved guilty by two or more witnesses.
• No witness was ever called for the defense.
• The Court lacked the civil authority to condemn a man to death, that’s why they had to personal arrangements to go see Pilate. Because Pilate was the personal representative of the ruler of the world.
• It was illegal to conduct a session of the court on a feast day, it was Passover.
• The sentence is finally passed in the palace of the high priest, but the law demanded it be pronounced in the temple, in the hall of hewn stone.
They were in the High Priest’s own palace.
• The high priest rends his garment. He was never permitted to tear his official robe. (Leviticus 21:10)
• Without his priestly robe, he couldn’t have put Christ under oath.
Pilate’s Attempts
Pilate tried hard to get Jesus released!
• Pilate pronounced Jesus innocent as the personal representative of the ruler of the world.
• Pilate passed Jesus off to Herod
• Pilate passed Jesus off to the crowd…but they had been bribed and managed by the experts.
• Holiday gesture:
Prisoner of choice released Do you want Barabbas released or “your king”?
Barabbas
• Barabbas stood under the righteous condemnation of the law.
•He knew that the One who was to take his place on the was innocent.
• He knew that Jesus Christ was for him a true substitute.
• He knew that he had done nothing to merit going free while another took his place.
Changing Places
• The murderer’s bonds, curse, disgrace, and mortal agony were transferred to the righteous Jesus;
• While the liberty, innocence, safety, and well-being of the Nazarene became the lot of the murderer.
Mutual Exchange of Positions
• Barabbas is installed in all the rights and privileges of Jesus Christ;
• While the latter enters upon all the infamy and horror of the rebel’s position.
• The delinquent’s guilt and cross become the lot of the Just One, and
• All the civil rights and immunities of the later are the property of the delinquent.
Where are you and I? …in Barabbas’ shoes!
Yet, we switched places with the innocent Jesus!
The Crucifixion
Invented by Persians in 90 B.C.; widely adopted by the Romans. Death by asphyxiation…
Old Testament Prophecies Quoted in the Gospels
• He was to be of David’s family: 2 Sam 7:12-16; Ps 89:3- 4; 110:1; 132:11; Isa 9:6, 7; 11:1.
• He would be born of a virgin: Gen 3:15; Isa 7:14.
• He would be born in Bethlehem: Micah 5:2.
• He would sojourn in Egypt: Hos 11:1.
• He would live in Galilee: Isa 9:1, 2…in Nazareth: Isa 11:1.
• To be announced by an Elijah-like herald: Isa 40:3-5; Mal 3:1; 4:5.
• Would occasion massacre of Bethlehem’s children: Gen 35:19-20; Jer 31:15.
• Would proclaim a Jubilee to the world: Isa 58:6; 61:1.
• His mission would include the Gentiles: Isa 42:1-4.
• Ministry would be one of healing: Isa 53:4.
• He would teach through parables: Isa 6:9-10; Ps 78:2.
• He would be disbelieved, rejected by rulers: Ps 69:4; 118:22; Isa 6:10; 29:13; 53:1.
• Would make a triumphal entry into Jerusalem: Zech 9:9; Ps 118:26.
• Betrayed by friend for 30 pieces of silver: Zech 11:1-13; Ps 41:9.
• Would be like a smitten shepherd: Zech 13:7.
• Would be given vinegar and gall: Ps 69:21.
• They would cast lots for His garments: Ps 22:18.
• His side would be pierced: Zech 12:10; Ps 22:16.
• Not a bone would be broken: Ex 12:46; Num 9:12; Ps 34:20.
• Would die among malefactors: Isa 53:9, 12.
• His dying words foretold: Ps 22:1; 31:5.
• Would be buried by a rich man: Isa 53:9.
• Rise from dead on 3rd day: Gen 22:4; Ps 16:10-11; Jon 1:17.
• Resurrection followed by destruction of Jerusalem: Daniel 9:26; 11:31; 12:1,11.
What held Him to the Cross? His love for you and me!
He was crucified on a cross of wood;
yet He made the hill on which it stood! What held Him to that cross? It wasn’t the nails:
At any time He could have said, “Enough already; I’m out of here!.” It was His love for you and me…
• Imagine the Father, having to watch His Son being spit upon, mocked, beaten, stripped naked, insulted, and to see Him publically humiliated and finally crucified.
• The forbearance of he Father is astonishing to reflect on in this whole scenario.
• Imagine a Father having to endure that being done to His Son yet, knowing that if He appears on the scene, He will blow the mission.
Pilate’s Epitaph
• Pilate personally put this title on the cross.
John 19:19, 20
And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, “Jesus Of Nazareth The King Of The Jews.” This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.
• Pilate is fluent in three languages.
John 19:21, 22
Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, “Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.” Pilate answered, “What I have written I have written.”
• Pilate seems to authenticate that Jesus was the King of the Jews!
Yeshua HaNazarei v Melech HaYehudim:
Jesus the Nazarei and King of the Jews.

Unrecorded Conversation
• Joseph of Arimathea begs the body from Pontius Pilate:
• Joseph of Arimathea was a powerful man in order to even approach Pilate.
• Joseph of Arimathea was “secreted” he was undercover hiding from the Jews who wanted to kill him.
Because he had defended Jesus on a previous occasion.
– Had personal access to the Procurator;
– He was probably the next of kin to Jesus and it was Roman law and maybe even Hebrew law that the next of kin had the responsibility of disposing of the body.
• Pilate was surprised.
• Joseph explained: “It’s just for the weekend…”
— Pastor Chuck Smith
Sealing the Tomb
Matthew27:63, 64
Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive,
After three days I will rise again. Command therefore that the sepulchre
be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal
him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last
error shall be worse than the first. Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch:
go your way, make it as sure as ye can.
• The Pharisees said, “Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive,
After three days I will rise again”
• The Pharisees got that, the only people that got that was His enemies and.....
• Also, some of the women, Mary who washed His feet with her hair, etc.
• The disciples never got it.
Sealing The Tomb
• The Pharisees admit that it was a mistake what they did so far, they didn’t plan on killing Him on the Passover.
“so the last error shall be worse than the first”
• Pilate said, “you have a watch, go your way, make it as sure as you can.”
• It almost sounds like a dare.
• Pilate may not have been surprised when it was told to him by the guards that Jesus had risen from the dead.
• Remember the soldiers were paid money to change their story of what they saw at the resurrection.
Matthew 28:12-15
11 Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done. 12 And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers, 13 Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept. 14 And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you. 15 So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
The Resurrection
The most significant event in the history of the Universe!
He is risen! The most important validation in the history of the universe.
Genesis 8:4
And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month,
upon the mountains of Ararat.
7th month

Mountains of Ararat
• That’s when the New Beginning starts under Noah in the book of Genesis.
Why did the Holy Spirit want us to know this very date?
The Jews have Two Calendars
Beginning of Civil Year:
Tishri (in the Fall) Rosh Hoshana, the New Year in September
Beginning of Religious:
Nisan (in the Spring)
• In Exodus 12 God ordains Passover
Exodus 12:2
This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
• This month is the month of Nisan, the 7th month
• That means the Jews have 2 calenders,
The Genesis calender, is the old calender

• In the Upper Room? Luke 24:33-43
• By the Sea of Galilee? John 21:3-12 they didn’t recognize Jesus until they caught the fish in the net.
John’s Enigmatic Remark
John 21:12
Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples durst ask
him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.
• There is some kind of enigma lurking behind the scene, did Jesus look entirely different?
• Maybe His beard was gone and He may have had scar tissue, He does have nail prints in His hands.
