We’re in a series on the last week of the life of Jesus. The week that culminated in his death, burial and resurrection. Throughout history, it has become known as Holy Week. A time to focus on the passion or suffering of Jesus, which is why we’re calling this series “The Passion.” In that week, Jesus had a last night. He knew it was going to be his last one. So, what did he do? In Mark 14:12-31 we note that the disciples are anxious to prepare for the Passover meal. In verse thirteen, Jesus gives his disciples some kind of secret instructions. A man carrying a water jar would have been an unusual spectacle since women normally fetched water. Finding the room is like finding the donkey when Jesus comes to Jerusalem. The room appears, as Jesus knows everything in advance and is in control of what is happening.
