Jesus Sets His Face Toward Jerusalem

Luke 9:51-56

As the time approached for him to be taken up into heaven, he made his decision to set out for Yerushalayim.

He sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village in Shomron to make preparations for him.

However, the people there would not let him stay, because his destination was Yerushalayim.

When the talmidim Ya‘akov and Yochanan saw this, they said, “Sir, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to destroy them?”

But he turned and rebuked them.

And they went on to another village.
