Matthew 26:32
βBut after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.ββ
What does Matthew 26:32 mean?
Jesus is speaking to his disciples after announcing his arrest and suffering, and he's offering them something to hold onto: a promise that this terrible thing happening isn't the end of the story. He's telling them that he will rise from death and meet them again in Galilee, the region where their journey with him began. This would have sounded impossible to them in that dark moment, yet it's Jesus reassuring them that resurrection and restoration are coming. For anyone walking through a season of loss or fear, this verse reminds us that what feels final and devastating right now isn't ultimately where the story ends.
