Matthew 22:7-10

7The king was angry, and he sent his troops and ^adestroyed those murderers and burned their city. 8Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding feast is ready, but those invited were not ^bworthy. 9Go therefore to the main roads and invite to the wedding feast as many as you find.’ 10And those servants went out into the roads and ^cgathered all whom they found, both bad and good. So the wedding hall was filled with guests.

Matthew 23:34-38

34 ^dTherefore ^eI send you ^fprophets and wise men and ^gscribes, ^hsome of whom you will kill and crucify, and ⁱsome you will ^jflog in your synagogues and ^kpersecute from town to town, 35so that on you may come all ^lthe righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous ^mAbel to the blood of ⁿZechariah the son of Barachiah, ▼

▼Some manuscripts omit  the son of Barachiah

whom you murdered between ^pthe sanctuary and ^qthe altar. 36Truly, I say to you, ^rall these things will come upon this generation.

Lament over Jerusalem

37 ^s“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that ^tkills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have ^ugathered ^vyour children together ^was a hen gathers her brood ^xunder her wings, and ^yyou were not willing! 38See, ^zyour house is left to you desolate.

Luke 19:42-44

42saying, ^aa“Would that you, even you, had known on this day the things that make for peace! But now ^abthey are hidden from your eyes. 43For ^acthe days will come upon you, when your enemies ^adwill set up a barricade around you and ^aesurround you and hem you in on every side 44 ^afand tear you down to the ground, you and your children within you. And ^agthey will not leave one stone upon another in you, because you did not know ^ahthe time of your ^aivisitation.”

Luke 21:20-26

Jesus Foretells Destruction of Jerusalem

20“But ^ajwhen you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that ^akits desolation has come near. 21Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and let those who are inside the city depart, and let not those who are out in the country enter it, 22for these are ^aldays of ^amvengeance, to fulfill ^anall that is written. 23 ^aoAlas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! For there will be great distress upon the earth and ^apwrath against this people. 24They will fall by the edge of the sword and ^aqbe led captive among all nations, and ^arJerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles, ^asuntil the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

The Coming of the Son of Man

25“And ^atthere will be signs in sun and moon ^auand stars, and on the earth ^avdistress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves, 26people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For ^awthe powers of the heavens will be shaken.

Romans 11:7-14

7What then? ^axIsrael failed to obtain what it was seeking. The elect obtained it, but the rest ^aywere hardened, 8as it is written,

^az“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
^baeyes that would not see
and ears that would not hear,
down to this very day.”
9And David says,

^bb“Let their table become a snare and a trap,
a stumbling block and a retribution for them;
10let their eyes be darkened so that they cannot see,
and bend their backs forever.”

Gentiles Grafted In

11So I ask, did they stumble in order that they might fall? By no means! Rather, through their trespass ^bcsalvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous. 12Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion ▼

mean!

13Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as ^beI am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry 14in order somehow to make my fellow Jews jealous, and ^bfthus save some of them.

Ephesians 3:3-8

3 ^bghow the mystery was made known to me ^bhby revelation, ^bias I have written briefly. 4 ^bjWhen you read this, you can perceive my insight into ^bkthe mystery of Christ, 5which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit. 6This mystery is ▼

that the Gentiles are ^bmfellow heirs, ^bnmembers of the same body, and ^bopartakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

7 ^bpOf this gospel I was made ^bqa minister according to the gift of ^brGod’s grace, which was given me ^bsby the working of his power. 8To me, ^btthough I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, ^buto preach to the Gentiles the ^bvunsearchable ^bwriches of Christ,
