Silent Wednesday

Holy Week

March 27, 2024 • Jason Bell • John 12:1–8, Mark 14:10–11

Today is called "Silent Wednesday" because there is not a record of what Jesus did. He seems to rest in Bethany, just outside Jerusalem. But while He does, Judas received money to betray Him and Mary sacrificed money to honor Him one last time before He died. To Judas, Jesus was nearly worthless; He could be exchanged for silver. To Mary, He was priceless; if she'd had more to give she would have. By Wednesday, the time before the cross was getting very short. In a few days, Jesus would pay the greatest price He could for you.
