FRIDAY, NISAN 8, 32 A.D.
Jesus arrived in Bethany from Jericho to attend the 32 A.D. Passover celebration in Jerusalem after having hid himself in Ephraim from the Jewish Pharisees. He hid himself in Ephraim after He raised Lazarus from the dead because the Jewish Pharisees wanted to kill Him.
In John 11:45-57, we read...
