We have come to verse 32 of chapter 10, and it says, “they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem”. They are heading up to Jerusalem for the Passover celebration. In verse 1 of chapter 11, it is the triumphal entry into Jerusalem, that would make it Sunday. Then 5 days later would be the crucifixion. So our passage today puts us around a week or so before the cross. The estimate is somewhere around 2-3 million people are making their way to Jerusalem for the Passover celebration, and what we read is that Jesus is leading the processional. Jesus is leading the procession, for most it is a celebration, but for Jesus it is for a crucifixion. That is where you and I come in. In today’s message, we will see how Jesus is inviting us on the procession to the cross again and we will see Jesus sharing His heart, His burden, and His sorrow.
