Going into Jerusalem

On the eve of his fateful entry into Jerusalem, Jesus celebrates his last peaceful moments with friends while his enemies plot in the shadows.

Summary

As tension builds in Jerusalem over whether Jesus will dare to attend Passover, he arrives in Bethany to a hero's welcome, staying with friends despite the authorities' death decree. In a powerful contrast of love versus hatred, Jesus is honored at a defiant public banquet where he speaks of breaking down 'walls of prejudice and self-righteousness,' even as the religious authorities seek his arrest but fear to act against his growing popular support.
