25 Then He said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

26 ^aOught not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into His ^bglory?”

27 And beginning at ^aMoses and ^ball the Prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.
