Matthew 17:22-23
22And as they were gathering in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is going to be handed over into the hands of men, 23and they will kill him, and on the third day he will be raised.” And they were deeply grieved.
30And going out from there, they were passing through Galilee, and he did not want anyone to know it; 31for he was teaching his disciples and saying to them, “The Son of Man is being handed over into the hands of men, and they will kill him; and when he has been killed, after three days he will rise.” 32But they did not understand the saying, and they were afraid to ask him.
43And all were astonished at the majesty of God. But while all were marveling at all that he was doing, he said to his disciples, 44“You, put these words into your ears: for the Son of Man is about to be handed over into the hands of people.” 45But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them so that they would not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
