Still, today and tomorrow and the next day I must keep going, because it is unthinkable for a prophet to die outside Jerusalem.
In context
31At that same hour some Pharisees came up and said to him, “Get out and move on from here, because Herod wants to kill you.” 32He told them, “Go and tell that fox: look, I am driving out demons and completing cures today and tomorrow, and on the third day I reach my goal. 33Still, today and tomorrow and the next day I must keep going, because it is unthinkable for a prophet to die outside Jerusalem. 34Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you — how often I longed to gather your children the way a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you refused! 35Look, your house is left to you. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, ‘Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord.’”
