Getty Music: HYMNS & DEVOTIONS FOR HOLY WEEK
WATCH "SPEAK O LORD" <https://gettymusic.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?u=aa4cd9a5b4688d5ec76f457cb&id=5acf5c47d6&e=843a733a52>
It is Tuesday of Holy Week. With Jesus in Jerusalem, the scribes and elders of the Jews feel threatened by the popularity of the prophet from Galilee. So they try to trap him in debate. They lure him with the most controversial questions of the day, eager for the moment when he gives a wrong answer: “Tell us by what authority you do these things, or who it is that gave you this authority” (Luke 20:2).
Time and time again, Jesus confounds them. He speaks words of truth. Words of power. He proves to be the only one with real answers—answers that lead to life. The result? “Some of the scribes answered, ‘Teacher, you have spoken well.’ For they no longer dared to ask him any question” (Luke 20:39-40).
Since that Tuesday centuries ago, our world has continued to spurn the teaching of Christ. But believers listen to his voice, for we know that he alone is the way, the truth, and the life. His word feeds us. His word tests us. And his word will echo down through eternity—till his church is built and the earth is filled with his glory.
