Luke 23:26 - 56
Jesus is led to the place of execution. While in transit, He offers hope and comfort to those who are lamenting His demise. Throughout the proceedings, His focus is on others, never Himself. The crowd mocks Him, asking Jesus to save Himself. But Jesus does something even better than that: He dies so that salvation can be offered to all of us! His body is taken from the site of crucifixion and placed in the tomb of a wealthy ruler (itself a fulfilment of prophecy) and all rest on the Sabbath day.
