  • Holy Week Bible Study Holy Monday: Jesus at the Temple and the Cursed Fig Tree After Palm Sunday, Jesus Returned with His Disciples to Jerusalem
    1 Holy Week Bible Study Holy Monday: Jesus at the Temple and the Cursed Fig Tree After Palm Sunday, Jesus returned with his disciples to Jerusalem. Along the way, he cursed a fig tree because it had failed to bear fruit. Some scholars consider this cursing of the fig tree symbolized God's judgment on the spiritually dead religious leaders of Israel. Others believe the analogy reached to all believers, explaining that true faith is more than just outward religiosity; true, living faith must bear spiritual fruit in a person's life. When Jesus appeared at the Temple, he discovered the courts full of corrupt money changers. He overturned their tables and cleared the Temple, saying; Luke 19:46. The Scriptures declare, 'My Temple will be a house of prayer,' but you have turned it into a den of thieves. On Monday evening Jesus stayed in Bethany again, likely in the home of his friends, Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. The Bible account of Holy Monday is found in: Matthew 21:12-22, Mark 11:15-19, Luke 19:45-48, and John 2:13-17. Read the Bible Story of the Cursed Fig Tree Holy Tuesday: Jesus Goes to the Mount of Olives On Tuesday morning, Jesus and his disciples returned to Jerusalem. At the Temple, Jewish religious leaders were enraged at Jesus for establishing himself as a spiritual authority. They arranged an ambush with the intent to put him under arrest. But Jesus eluded their traps and declared severe judgments on them, saying: Matthew 23:24-33. "Blind guides! For you are like whitewashed tombs —beautiful on the outside but filled on the inside with dead people's bones and all sorts of impurity.

PREFACE Holy Week is the week leading up to Easter, beginning with Palm Sunday and ending with Easter Sunday. It is a week devoted to commemorating Jesus Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem (Palm Sunday), the Last Supper with His disciples (Maundy Thursday), His crucifixion (Good Friday) and His resurrection (Easter Sunday). It has historically been a time of introspection and repentance, an opportunity to embrace what it looks like to live out Christ’s suffering in our own lives and find true redemption in Him. It is this sentiment — death and new life — that is at the heart of Holy Week. We pray this devotional, created by different members of the Evangel family, will bless you. Carol A.

  • This Is the Most Solemn Week of the Church Year
    Holy Week Trinity Anglican Church Drawing by Sophie Fong Holy week and Easter are the oldest part of the Christian Year. Each day in Holy Week we meet to receive the Bread of Life in Holy Scriptures, Holy Sacraments, and Holy Fellowship. The purpose of Holy Week is to bring us into the presence of the living Christ, that we may be drawn deeper into His life, which is the very life of the God who IS Love: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. From the very early years of the Christian Church Christians gathered day by day the week before Easter to follow the events of the last week before Jesus’ death and resurrection. The reason is not hard to find. Easter is our Christian Passover. At Passover faithful Jews recall how God delivered them from slavery in Egypt and brought them into the Promised Land. They take care to remember and mark these things publicly because it is through these events that God called them and made them a people. Our Christian Passover looks back to the events through which God has called us and made us a people – ‘ a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation’ (1 Peter 2:9). We have been called out of slavery to sin and dark powers that are blind and care nothing for us through the waters of Baptism, just as the people of Israel were brought through the Red Sea. For the children of Israel, the desert was the place where God transformed them from a rag-tag collection of disgruntled slaves to a free and responsible nation of citizens united by law under God.

  • Holy Week Meditation and Study Guide
    HOLY WEEK MEDITATION AND STUDY GUIDE Fr. Andrew Demotses The services of Holy Week transform us into eyewitnesses and direct participants in the awesome events of the Passion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. In readings taken from both Old and New Testaments, in hymns, processions, and liturgical commemoration, we see the fulfillment of the Messianic prophecies, and the mighty acts by which God Himself, in the person of Jesus Christ, grants us forgiveness for our sins, and rescues us from the pain of eternal death. PALM SUNDAY EVENING - 6:00 p.m. April 12, Bridegroom Matins - Matthew 21:18-43. This evening's service calls to mind the beginning of Jesus' suffering. The gospel describes the plotting of the priests and elders to trap Jesus into convicting Himself as a religious heretic. Through parables, Jesus tells us of His coming betrayal, trial, conviction and execution by crucifixion. The hymns of this service commemorate two things; the first, the prophetic figure of Joseph, who, while virtuous, nonetheless suffered unjustly at the hands of his brothers before being greatly rewarded, and the second, the parable of the fig tree, which in failing to bear fruit, became a symbol of fallen creation, and of our own lives, in which we also have failed to bear spiritual fruit. HOLY MONDAY EVENING - 6:00 p.m. April 13, Bridegroom Matins Matthew 22:15-46; 23:1-39. This evening's theme is the need for watchfulness and preparation, lest we be called unprepared before the awesome judgment seat of Christ to render an account of ourselves.

  • Christian Liturgical Calendar Prepared by Jane A
    Christian Liturgical Calendar Prepared by Jane A. Harper, D.D., Ph.M. - 2002 & 2015 The word liturgy comes from a Greek word meaning "work of the people." The term refers to the entire order of worship and is generally used in churches where the congregation performs parts of the worship service by speaking or praying in unison. Life is a process through which we are continually evolving through cycles within ever increasing cycles. The Liturgical Calendar is a path, a journey, a series of services, ceremonies, rituals and public worship that follows a yearly cycle of birth, life, death and resurrection through Jesus the Christ. In the Methodist tradition the calendar runs in a three year cycle with scripture lessons covering the majority of the Bible and hopefully raising our understanding and faith in the process. Liturgical colors are a part of the rituals/services throughout the year. These colors are not just about their ritual or ceremonial use. We experience colors: they set a mood and create an attitude. There is a direct connection that exists between the brain and the body creating reactions that take place independently of thought or deliberation. Colors often have different symbolic meanings in different cultures and reactions to colors are a combination of biological, physiological, psychological, social and cultural factors. Color energies even seem to transcend seeing. One hypothesis is that neurotransmitters in the eye transmit information about light to the brain even in the absence of sight. This information releases a hormone in the hypothalamus that has numerous effects on our moods, mental clarity and energy level.
