UP Symphonic Band - La Passió de Crist / 3rd Movement (Ferrer Ferran)

III. Arrival at the Temple / The Last Supper / Arrest / Sentence / Crucifixion / Hope
- Crowds of people carpeted the road with their cloaks and some cut branches from the trees to spread in his path. Then cut branches from the trees to spread in his path. Then the crowd that went ahead and the others that came behind raised the shout: “Hosanna to the son of David. Blessings on him who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the heavens!”
- Jesus went into the temple and drove out all who were buying and selling in the temple precincts; he upset the tables of the money-changers and the seats of the dealers in pigeons.
- And said to them, “Scripture says, My house shall be called a house of prayer”; but you are making it a robbers cave.”
- “You know that in two days’ time it will be Passover, and the Son of Man is to be handed over for crucifixion”.
- In the evening, he sat down with the twelve disciples.
- Jesus then came with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane. He said to them, “Sit here while I go over there to pray”.
- “Up, let us go forward; the traitor is upon us”.
- The High Priest then said, “By the living God I charge you to tell us: Are you the Messiah, the Son of God?”.
- Meanwhile the chief priests and elders had persuaded the crowd to ask for the release of Bar-Abbas and to have Jesus put to death. So when the governor asked, “Which of the two do you wish me to release to you?,” they said, “Bar-Abbas.” “Then what am I to do with Jesus called Messiah?” asked Pilate; and with one voice they answered, “Crucify him.”
- He then released Bar-Abbas to them; but he had Jesus flogged, and handed him over to be crucified.
- And plaiting a crown of thorns they placed it on his head. Falling on their knees before him they jeered at him: “Hail, King of the Jews!” When they had finished their mockery, they took off the mantle and dressed him in his own clothes. Then they led him away to be crucified. They made him carry his cross. So they came to a place called Golgotha (which means “Place of a Skull”).
- Jesus again gave a loud cry and breathed his last. At that moment, the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. There was an earthquake, the rocks split…
- The angel then addressed the women: “You, he said, have nothing to fear. I know you are looking for Jesus who was crucified. He is not here; he has been raised again, as he said he would be.”
- Jesus then came up and spoke to them. He said: “Full authority in heaven and on earth has been committed to me. Go forth therefore and make all nations my disciples; baptize men everywhere in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, and teach them to observe all that I have commanded you. And be assured, I am with you always, to the end of time.”
