Chronological Bible Reading for November 13
Matthew 27; Mark 15

Matthew 27:3 – Judas is sorrowful of his actions as Peter was also sorrowful over his denial. Peter however turned away from his denial and back to Jesus. Judas however did not have any hope for Jesus as the Son of God or his own life.
Matthew 27:9 – A prophecy fulfilled from Zechariah 11:12.
(from Matthew Henry) How they are here said to be spoken by Jeremy is a difficult question; but the credit of Christ’s doctrine does not depend upon it; for that proves itself perfectly divine, though there should appear something human as to small circumstances in the penmen of it. The Syriac version, which is ancient, reads only, It was spoken by the prophet, not naming any, whence some have thought that Jeremy was added by some scribe; some think that the whole volume of the prophets, being in one book, and the prophecy of Jeremiah put first, it might not be improper, currente calamo – for a transcriber to quote any passage out of that volume, under his name. The Jews used to say, The spirit of Jeremiah was in Zechariah, and so they were as one prophet. Some suggest that it was spoken by Jeremiah, but written by Zechariah; or that Jeremiah wrote the ninth, tenth, and eleventh chapters of Zechariah.
Matthew 27:25 – It is good that the blood of Christ covers our sin. Would you have called for Jesus’s blood to be on you and your children thinking about it that way?
Matthew 27:35 – A prophecy fulfilled from Psalms 22:18.
Matthew 27:38 – A prophecy fulfilled from Isaiah 53:12.
Matthew 27:51 – The opening of the seat of God to the people was not done by man, from bottom to top but by God from top to bottom.
Matthew 27:52 – Many are raised from the dead as a prophecy witness that Jesus arose from death.
Matthew 27:54 – The Roman officer who was trained to only worship Caesar as the Egyptians worshiped their Pharaoh, saw all the evidence that was given during the crucifixion and believed in Jesus’s deity.
Matthew 27:61 – This shows us that the ladies followed to where Jesus was buried so they may return after the Sabbath to anoint His body.

Mark 15:28 – A prophecy fulfilled from Isaiah 53:12.
Mark 15:32 – Would it be a greater miracle to come down from the cross or rise from the dead? And if they would believe if He came down from the cross then why not believe when He arose from the dead? It is because their hearts were evil and hated to lose the position and honor that their status gave.
