Jesus prepares his disciples for his trial and ultimate sacrifice on earth. Warning them not to tell anyone that he is the Messiah, he informs them that he must go to Jerusalem for the Passover. There he tells them he will meet his death, but after the third day he will rise again. On the road to Jerusalem, Jesus performs the last and most famous or his miracles: he restores Lazarus to life, who had been dead for four days. Jesus enters Jerusalem on the eve of the Passover as his final days on earth come to a climactic close.
