📚 Historical Context
This verse occurs shortly after Jesus' resurrection, when the eleven disciples, now excluding Judas Iscariot, who had betrayed Jesus and taken his own life, were following his instructions to return to Galilee. They traveled to a specific mountain in that region, as Jesus had previously directed them during his appearances to the women at the tomb, marking a pivotal moment in the transition from his earthly ministry to the Great Commission. This setting underscores the disciples' obedience and sets the stage for Jesus' final instructions to his followers.
