Lesson 11
Jan 12, 2023 • Meg Rice
As Jesus moves closer and closer to Jerusalem, his teachings get increasingly more urgent. His heart’s
desire is that all of Israel would come to the knowledge that he is the long-awaited Messiah, the
Anointed One called by God to set his people free. The issue was that the freedom Israel desired was
political freedom from the shackles of Rome. Jesus offered spiritual freedom from the shackles of sin
and death. Do they want that kind of freedom?
