“Come, let’s kill him” (Matthew 21:38).
From Jesus’ parable, we look to His death. The crucifixion of Jesus
has a human explanation: “wicked men put Him to death by nailing Him to
the cross” – but that’s not the whole story! In the death of Jesus, we
see God’s “plan” of salvation – His eternal plan (Acts 2:23). When
Jesus’ enemies thought that they had succeeded, they couldn’t have been
more wrong! Jesus’ death was followed by His resurrection: “God raised
Him from the dead.” In Jesus’ resurrection, we see His mighty triumph
over death: “it was impossible for death to keep its hold on Him” (Acts
2:24).
