Jesus arrived in Jerusalem, was praised, went to the temple and took note of what he saw, then retired to Bethany.
Cleansed the temple.
Jesus condemned the Jewish leadership, and from then on only taught the twelve (and not the public).  Jewish leaders consulted about Jesus' death.  
Jesus knew of the plot
Passover meal with the twelve. Jesus introduced the Sacrament. He prophesied of his death and who would betray him.  Jesus suffered the pain of all men and bled from every pore. He was then taken away by an armed band lead by Judas,  and brought to an illegal trial.
Jesus was charged with “blasphemy,” and the charge of sedition against the state. Pilate gave into the clamor to crucify Him. Jesus voluntarily gave up his spirit.  At sundown, was the Passover, and Jesus' body was taken to the sealed tomb.
The Jewish Sabbath day, Jesus’ body remained in the tomb, but his spirit “ministered in the realm of departed spirits.”
Christ emerged from the tomb, and appeared to Mary and many other witnesses.
