Apostles' Inner Conflict and Jesus' Change in Tactics

Apostles' Inner Conflict and Jesus' Change in TacticsTime and again Jesus had dashed the hopes of his apostles. He had repeatedly crushed their fondest expectations. But nothing had ever equaled what overtook them that day. Mixed in with their depression was a real fear for their safety. They were startled and surprised by how suddenly and completely the people had deserted them. They were also somewhat concerned and frightened by the unexpected assertiveness of the Pharisees who had come down from Jerusalem.
