22 And he went on his way, through towns and country places, teaching and journeying to Jerusalem.
And it came about that when the days were near for him to be taken up, his face was turned to go to Jerusalem,
And he was greatly surprised because they had no faith. And he went about the country places teaching.
And they were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going before them: and they were full of wonder; but those who came after him were in fear. And again he took the twelve, and gave them word of the things which were to come on him, Saying, See, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be given up to the chief priests and the scribes; and they will give an order for his death, and will give him up to the Gentiles: And they will make sport of him, and put shame on him, and give him cruel blows, and will put him to death; and after three days he will come back from the dead.
But he said to them, I have to give the good news of the kingdom of God in other towns, because that is why I was sent. And he was teaching in the Synagogues of Galilee.
