Day 14 – Read Matthew 27-28

Jesus was delivered to the governor to be charged and tried. According to their custom, the governor allowed the people to choose a man to be released. The crowd chose Barabbas. Jesus was handed over to be crucified. The soldiers mocked Jesus. At His death, the curtain in the temple was torn from top to bottom. The end of the old covenant and the beginning of the new covenant in Christ began. The body was placed in a tomb and guarded, but the tomb was found to be empty after the Sabbath. The guards were told to say the body was taken while they were asleep. The eleven remaining disciples went to Galilee and saw that Jesus had risen. He gave them the Great Commission, a call to make disciples of all nations.
