Rev. Doug Nicely, pastor of Jerusalem Lutheran Church in Collinsville, Illinois, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Mark 14.
“One of you will betray me, one who is eating with me.” Mark 14 slows down the pace and narrates the Passion of Jesus ☧ in detail. On the one hand, there are various contradictory goals and reactions swirling about ☧ as the disciples scatter in fear. On the other hand, everything unfolds according to ☧’s plan, as God secures a new Exodus for His people through the Lamb. “The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” ☧ shows that, even amidst His real human turmoil, He is selflessly resolved to confront Judas and even the High Priest for the sake of His people.
