First prediction of the passion
Matthew 16:21-23
21From that time Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go away to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and high priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised. 22And Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never happen to you.” 23But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, because you are not thinking the things of God but the things of men.”
31And he began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the high priests and the scribes and be killed and after three days rise. 32And he was speaking the word openly. And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. 33But he, turning around and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter and says, “Get behind me, Satan! For you are not thinking the things of God but the things of men.”
22saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and high priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.”
Jerusalem
Today: Old City of Jerusalem
A city in the hills of Judea, about 22 miles (35 km) west of the Dead Sea and 35 miles (55 km) east of the Mediterranean.
David took it and made it his city (2 Sam 5:7); Solomon built the temple there (1 Kgs 8:1). Jesus was presented there, and the apostles' witness began from it (Luke 2:22; Acts 1:8).
20Then he ordered the disciples to tell no one that he was the Messiah.
