Gospel of the Day – John 11:45-57

“Therefore many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and who had seen what Jesus had done, believed in him.

But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. Then the chief priests and the Pharisees formed a council, and said, What shall we do?

for this man does many signs.
If we leave it like this, everyone will believe in it, and the Romans will come and take away our place and our nation.

And Caiaphas, one of them who was high priest that year, said unto them, Ye know nothing, Nor consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation should not perish.

Now he did not say this of himself, but, being the high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation.
And not only for the nation, but also to gather into one body the children of God who were scattered.

Since that day, therefore, they consulted to kill him.
Jesus therefore no longer walked manifestly among the Jews, but withdrew from there into the land by the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim; and there he remained with his disciples.

And the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and many from that region went up to Jerusalem before the Passover to purify themselves.

So they sought Jesus, and said to one another, when they were in the temple, What do you think? Won't you come to the party?

Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, they should report him and arrest him.“.
