Luke 13:31-33

Expanded Bible

Jesus Will Die in Jerusalem^(A)

³¹ At that ·time [or very hour] some Pharisees came to Jesus and said, “Go away from here! Herod [^CAntipas; see 3:1] wants to kill you!”

³² Jesus said to them, “Go tell that fox Herod, ‘[^LLook; ^TBehold] Today and tomorrow I am ·forcing [driving; casting] demons out and healing people. Then, on the third day, I will ·reach my goal [accomplish my purpose; finish my work; ^Lfinish].’ ³³ Yet I must be on my way today and tomorrow and the next day. Surely it ·cannot be right [is impossible; is unthinkable] for a prophet to be killed anywhere except in Jerusalem.
