Bible: Matthew 16:21; 17:22-23; 20:18-19

First Prediction of Jesus’ Death and Resurrection

16:21 From that time on 1  Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem 2  and suffer 3  many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests, and experts in the law, 4  and be killed, and on the third day be raised.

17:22 When he finished speaking with Abraham, God went up from him. 1 

17:23 Abraham took his son Ishmael and every male in his household (whether born in his house or bought with money) 2  and circumcised them 3  on that very same day, just as God had told him to do.

20:18 For the Lord 1  had caused infertility to strike every woman 2  in the household of Abimelech because he took 3  Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
