Holy Tuesday- Jesus At the Mount of Olives
Tuesday was a day filled with tumultuous events. Jesus and his disciples returned to Jerusalem and were met with opposition from the Temple’s religious leaders. Jesus pronounced judgment upon them and then managed to escape arrest. Jesus and the disciples left the Temple and went to the Mount of Olives, where it was that Jesus gave the Olivet discourse.
Behind the scenes, Judas Iscariot was plotting against Jesus.
*The events of Tuesday and the Olivet Discourse are recorded in Matthew 21:23–24:51, Mark 11:20–13:37, Luke 20:1–21:36, and John 12:20–38.
