Luke 13: 31-35 - 'It would not be right for a prophet to die outside Jerusalem.'

Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs:

- 575 (in 'Jesus and Israel') - To be sure, Christ's relations with the Pharisees were not exclusively polemical. Some Pharisees warn him of the danger he was courting (abbreviated).

- 557 (in 'Jesus ascent to Jerusalem') - "When the days drew near for him to be taken up [Jesus] set his face to go to Jerusalem." By this decision he indicated that he was going up to Jerusalem prepared to die there. Three times he had announced his Passion and Resurrection; now, heading toward Jerusalem, Jesus says: "It cannot be that a prophet should perish away from Jerusalem"

- 585 (in 'Jesus and the Temple') - On the threshold of his Passion Jesus announced the coming destruction of this splendid building, of which there would not remain "one stone upon another". By doing so, he announced a sign of the last days, which were to begin with his own Passover (abbreviated).

0:00.0	Hi everyone. Welcome back to daily gospel exegesis, where we do an in-depth exegesis analysis of the gospel
0:17.8	reading from today's mass. So we're going through verse by verse, seeing if we can
0:21.8	uncover the literal sense of scripture, which is where we have to start as Catholics. When we're
0:26.7	looking at the Bible, we have to start with the literal sense. And then maybe we can build some
0:31.1	possible spiritual meanings on top of that if we want to. But we always need to start here at the
0:36.1	literal level. And that's our goal in this
0:38.7	podcast to help you get at what the literal level might be. So today we're looking at Luke
0:44.4	chapter 13 versus 31 to 35. Some Pharisees came up to Jesus. Go away, they said. Leave this place because Herod means to kill you.
0:58.3	He replied, you may go and give that fox this message. Learn that today and tomorrow I cast out devils and on the
1:07.0	third day attain my end. But for today and tomorrow and the next day I must go on,
1:13.5	since it would not be right for a prophet to die outside Jerusalem.
1:18.7	Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you that kill the prophets and stone those who are sent to you.
1:24.5	How often have I longed to gather your children as a hen gathers her brood under her wings?
1:30.6	And you refused. So be it. Your house will be left to you. Yes, I promise you, you shall not see me
1:39.5	till the time comes when you say, Blessings on him who comes in the name of the Lord.
1:48.5	So an interesting passage today, you may not have heard particularly the first half of it before,
1:53.1	because this is, that first half is unique to Luke.
1:56.1	It's not found in any of the other Gospels.
1:59.0	So where are we out in the Gospel of Luke?
2:01.0	So Jesus is in the last sort of journey phase of his ministry.
2:04.9	He's moving from Galilee up to Judea, very slowly, but that's where he's moving.
2:09.4	So it's the final phase of his ministry as he moves towards Jerusalem.
