The Final Week (Source: Swindoll's Insights on John) JESUS COMES TO BETHANY In John 12;1-11 we see Lazarus witnessing, Martha working and Mary worshipping. Therefore (oun) - Therefore ties this event to the preceding narrative. The Jews were looking for a way to have Jesus killed. Although there was no need to rush needlessly into danger, Jesus had come to lay down his life for others. ‘Therefore’ at the set time he came to the place where this would be accomplished ESV Study Bible - Therefore (Gk. oun) ties this verse to the previous one and is a reminder that John is constantly aware of God’s providential ordering of all these events and of Jesus’ obedience in following the path that he knew would lead to the cross. (BORROW ESV Study Bible) A T Robertson feels the Therefore (oun) "is not causal, but simply copulative and transitional, "and so" (Bernard), as often in John (John 1:22, etc.)" Jesus, therefore, six days before the Passover (pascha) - John had just mentioned Passover in Jn 11:55. John 12-20 records the last week of our Lord's life on earth. It's almost as if the Lord says to us, “Take the shoes off your feet, you are standing on Holy ground.” Six days is most likely the Saturday (favored by most commentaries but some like A T Robertson favor Friday) preceding his "Passion Week" (See discussion of timing by D A Carson) when He would be the fulfillment of what the Passover had been pointing to since the first Passover in Exodus 12:13, 23, 27+. Now He would be the actual sacrifice, "the Lamb of God Who takes away the sin of the world." (John 1:29+, cf Paul's description after the crucifixion - 1Cor 5:7+). J C Ryle on 6 days versus 2 days in Matt. 26:6–13; Mark 14:3–9 - There is no conflict. The time-indications in Matt. 26:2 and Mark 14:1 do not say that the supper at Bethany was given two days before the Passover, but that two days before the Passover the following happened: a. Jesus predicted that he would be delivered up to be crucified after two days, and b. the rulers resolved that he should not be put to death at the feast.
