In today’s gospel lesson, we read about the arrest of Jesus. As we read, we see that Jesus was surrounded by a group of armed men. Jesus was taken to the palace and questioned by the high priest. The high priest wanted to know if Jesus was the Messiah. Jesus answered by saying, “I am not the Messiah.” The high priest was not convinced and asked Jesus to prove Himself. Jesus then performed a miracle – he turned water into wine. The high priest was now convinced that Jesus was the Messiah and he sentenced Him to death. Jesus was then taken to the cross. As He was being crucified, Jesus cried out, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” After Jesus was crucified, He died and was buried. See here for more great tips.

Purpose of Sunday School Lesson
The purpose of Sunday School is to teach children about the Bible. This lesson from Mark 14:1-15:47 covers the story of Jesus’ crucifixion.
Background Information
In today’s gospel lesson, we learn about the arrest of Jesus. Jesus was arrested after he had finished preaching in the synagogue on a Sabbath day. The Jewish leaders were very angry with Jesus because they thought that he was breaking the law by preaching on the Sabbath.
After Jesus was arrested, he was taken to the palace of the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate. Pilate was very confused about what to do with Jesus. He knew that the Jewish law said that someone who was accused of a crime had to be put on trial. But Pilate didn’t know what to do with Jesus because he wasn’t a criminal.
Finally, Pilate decided to have Jesus judged by the Roman emperor, Tiberius. Tiberius was very angry with Jesus because he was a Jew. Tiberius thought that Jesus was trying to start a rebellion against the Roman government.
The emperor decided to have Jesus crucified. This was a very dangerous punishment because it was very easy for someone to die from being crucified.
After Jesus was crucified, he died on the cross. This meant that he was no longer alive. But Jesus still had power. This power was called “the resurrection.”
The resurrection is a very important part of Christianity. It shows us that Jesus is still alive and that he will come back to life again.
