Of course Jesus and His disciples were expected
to stay at Mary and Martha's home in Bethany.
Their brother Lazarus had been raised from the
dead just a short time before.

The people of the village gave Jesus a great
welcome, but the Sanhedrin had decreed His
death and had sent out a warrant to have Him
arrested.

The miracle involving Lazarus had produced an
impression on the people of the town and they
didn't pay any attention to the decree.
