A Samaritan Village Refuses to Receive Jesus
51 When the days drew near for him to be received up,[a] he set his face to go to Jerusalem.[b] 52 And he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him; 53 but the people would not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem.[c]
