| Publisher Description: In a borrowed or rented banqueting room atop some shop or large family dwelling in Jerusalem, the drama unfolded. Jesus and His disciples were standing on the precipice of the darkest night in the history of the world. The Lord of glory was about to be betrayed and murdered. The disciples would be scattered, and the boldest of them would deny even knowing Him. During those final hours before Jesus' betrayal, He gave His disciples--and consequently, all believers throughout history--His parting promises, His last will and testament. It is the inheritance of every believer in Christ. In The Upper Room, Pastor John MacArthur takes us back to that night and the glorious hope we have in Christ. This is vintage MacArthur--an exposition of the text that resonates with devotion to the Lord and love for God's people, calling us to know and to love the One who loved us to the end. |
