Matthew 21:1-46
When they had approached Jerusalem and had come to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus then sent two disciples,saying to them,“ Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied there and a colt with it. Untie them and bring them to Me.And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say,‘ The Lord needs them,’ and he will send them on immediately.”Now this took place so that what was spoken through the prophet would be fulfilled:“ Say to the daughter of Zion,‘ Behold your King is coming to you, Humble, and mounted on a donkey, Even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’ ”The disciples went and did just as Jesus had instructed them,and brought the donkey and the colt, and laid their cloaks on them; and He sat on the cloaks.Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others were cutting branches from the trees and spreading them on the road.Now the crowds going ahead of Him, and those who followed, were shouting,“ Hosanna to the Son of David; Blessed is the One who comes in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest!”When He had entered Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying,“ Who is this?”And the crowds were saying,“ This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth in Galilee.”And Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all those who were selling and buying on the temple grounds, and He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves.And He* said to them,“ It is written:‘ My house will be called a house of prayer’; but you are making it a den of robbers.”And those who were blind and those who limped came to Him in the temple area, and He healed them.But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that He had done, and the children who were shouting in the temple area,“ Hosanna to the Son of David,” they became indignant,and they said to Him,“ Do You hear what these children are saying?” And Jesus* said to them,“ Yes. Have you never read,‘ From the mouths of infants and nursing babies You have prepared praise for Yourself’?”And He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, and spent the night there.Now in the early morning, when He was returning to the city, He became hungry.And seeing a lone fig tree by the road, He came to it and found nothing on it except leaves alone; and He* said to it,“ No longer shall there ever be any fruit from you.” And at once the fig tree withered.Seeing this, the disciples were amazed and asked,“ How did the fig tree wither all at once?”And Jesus answered and said to them,“ Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain,‘ Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ it will happen.And whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive it all.”When He entered the temple area, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him while He was teaching, and said,“ By what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?”But Jesus responded and said to them,“ I will also ask you one question, which, if you tell Me, I will also tell you by what authority I do these things.The baptism of John was from what source: from heaven or from men?” And they began considering the implications among themselves, saying,“ If we say,‘ From heaven,’ He will say to us,‘ Then why did you not believe him?’But if we say,‘ From men,’ we fear the people; for they all regard John as a prophet.”And answering Jesus, they said,“ We do not know.” He also said to them,“ Neither am I telling you by what authority I do these things.“ But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said,‘ Son, go work today in the vineyard.’But he replied,‘ I do not want to.’ Yet afterward he regretted it and went.And the man came to his second son and said the same thing; and he replied,‘ I will, sir’; and yet he did not go.Which of the two did the will of his father?” They* said,“ The first.” Jesus* said to them,“ Truly I say to you that the tax collectors and prostitutes will get into the kingdom of God before you.For John came to you in the way of righteousness and you did not believe him; but the tax collectors and prostitutes did believe him; and you, seeing this, did not even have second thoughts afterward so as to believe him.“ Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard and put a fence around it, and dug a wine press in it, and built a tower, and he leased it to vine growers and went on a journey.And when the harvest time approached, he sent his slaves to the vine growers to receive his fruit.And the vine growers took his slaves and beat one, killed another, and stoned another.Again, he sent other slaves, more than the first; and they did the same things to them.But afterward he sent his son to them, saying,‘ They will respect my son.’But when the vine growers saw the son, they said among themselves,‘ This is the heir; come, let’s kill him and take possession of his inheritance!’And they took him and threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him.Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vine growers?”They* said to Him,“ He will bring those wretches to a wretched end and lease the vineyard to other vine growers, who will pay him the fruit in the proper seasons.”Jesus* said to them,“ Did you never read in the Scriptures,‘ A stone which the builders rejected, This has become the chief cornerstone; This came about from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes’?Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people producing its fruit.And the one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; and on whomever it falls, it will crush him.”When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard His parables, they understood that He was speaking about them.And although they sought to arrest Him, they feared the crowds, since they considered Him to be a prophet.

Isaiah 53:4-10
However, it was our sicknesses that He Himself bore, And our pains that He carried; Yet we ourselves assumed that He had been afflicted, Struck down by God, and humiliated.But He was pierced for our offenses, He was crushed for our wrongdoings; The punishment for our well being was laid upon Him, And by His wounds we are healed.All of us, like sheep, have gone astray, Each of us has turned to his own way; But the Lord has caused the wrongdoing of us all To fall on Him.He was oppressed and afflicted, Yet He did not open His mouth; Like a lamb that is led to slaughter, And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers, So He did not open His mouth.By oppression and judgment He was taken away; And as for His generation, who considered That He was cut off from the land of the living For the wrongdoing of my people, to whom the blow was due?And His grave was assigned with wicked men, Yet He was with a rich man in His death, Because He had done no violence, Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.But the Lord desired To crush Him, causing Him grief; If He renders Himself as a guilt offering, He will see His offspring, He will prolong His days, And the good pleasure of the Lord will prosper in His hand.

Matthew 26:1-27
When Jesus had finished all these words, He said to His disciples,“ You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man is to be handed over for crucifixion.”At that time the chief priests and the elders of the people were gathered together in the courtyard of the high priest named Caiaphas;and they plotted together to arrest Jesus covertly and kill Him.But they were saying,“ Not during the festival, otherwise a riot might occur among the people.”Now when Jesus was in Bethany, at the home of Simon the Leper,a woman came to Him with an alabaster vial of very expensive perfume, and she poured it on His head as He was reclining at the table.But the disciples were indignant when they saw this, and said,“ Why this waste?For this perfume could have been sold for a high price and the money given to the poor.”But Jesus, aware of this, said to them,“ Why are you bothering the woman? For she has done a good deed for Me.For you always have the poor with you; but you do not always have Me.For when she poured this perfume on My body, she did it to prepare Me for burial.Truly I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told in memory of her.”Then one of the twelve, named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priestsand said,“ What are you willing to give me to betray Him to you?” And they set out for him thirty pieces of silver.And from then on he looked for a good opportunity to betray Jesus.Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus and asked,“ Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”And He said,“ Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him,‘ The Teacher says,“ My time is near; I am keeping the Passover at your house with My disciples.” ’ ”The disciples did as Jesus had directed them; and they prepared the Passover.Now when evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the twelve.And as they were eating, He said,“ Truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me.”Being deeply grieved, they began saying to Him, each one:“ Surely it is not I, Lord?”And He answered,“ He who dipped his hand with Me in the bowl is the one who will betray Me.The Son of Man is going away just as it is written about Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.”And Judas, who was betraying Him, said,“ Surely it is not I, Rabbi?” Jesus* said to him,“ You have said it yourself.”Now while they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and after a blessing, He broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said,“ Take, eat; this is My body.”And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying,“ Drink from it, all of you;
