A Conversation On Holy Week | The Week Leading Up To Christ’s Victory Over Death

Dialégomai: The PĒØPŁËŠ Conversation With Travis & Kyra Gold

On Season 1 Episode 9 of Dialégomai: The PĒØPŁËŠ Conversation, hosts Travis and Kyra Gold talk about Holy Week.

In this conversation, they give a biblical overview of Holy Week, the last week of Jesus’ earthly ministry before His resurrection. Taking pauses in Scripture for each day, Palm Sunday through Silent Saturday, to encourage daily meditation of His Word throughout the week to spur us on as we prepare our hearts to worship and praise Him and His victory over death on Resurrection Sunday.

Prayerfully and biblically highlighting key moments that happen during this week, they also ask questions for personal reflection to aid in your study of the Scripture surrounding Holy Week with a heart that through this, the Lord might bring fresh revelation and illumination as to the significance of this week and help us, by the power and work of His Spirit, rediscover the beauty and awe-provoking intricacies of this week roughly 2000 years ago.

In this episode, they briefly explain the prophetic importance of Palm Sunday, give introductory insight into Jesus’ holy anger in flipping tables in the temple courts on Monday, share how on Tuesday, when Jesus’ authority is questioned by the Pharisees, His response to them exposes their hypocrisy. Continuing in the week, they talk about Jesus’ stillness on Wednesday at the house of Simon the Leper, receiving an expensive perfume preparation while His betrayal is finalized with payment. In honor of Maundy Thursday, they discuss the significance of the Last Supper at Passover before Jesus is arrested. Arriving at Good Friday, they expound some painful details of His death to magnify the awe-provoking, undeserved price that He paid. And lastly, on the eve of His resurrection, in the silence of Saturday, they share the irony of the hypocrisy of the Pharisees who feared Jesus would resurrect and asked Pilate to seal and guard the tomb to ensure He remains there.

They end on a note of biblical encouragement to be planted in your local church for the celebration of Resurrection Sunday, as there is nothing like coming together in His Name as the living, breathing Body of Christ, He died to create. Celebrating the resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, worshipping Him for His ultimate victory over death and His rescue of us.
