Today we continue our study verse by verse through the gospel of Matthew. Chapter 21 begins the final 8 chapters of Matthew which describe the final 8 days of Jesus' earthly life and ministry. He will enter Jerusalem, cleanse the temple, institute the Last Supper, be falsely accused and arrested, suffer a tortuous beating, and then, finally, be crucified for the sin of the world. Three days later, He will be raised victoriously to demonstrate His mastery over death, hell, and the grave. Scripture text is Matthew 21:1-22.
