Matthew 26:2 "Ye know
that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is
betrayed to be crucified."
Foreshadowing is what we
do to plant possibilities into the story before the incident comes up.
Sometimes we find we need to warn readers about a scene that would otherwise
jar them out of the story.
For instance, we might
write a rescue scene where the characters don’t save themselves, someone else
swoops in and saves them. If we have set it up ahead of time, we can have a
search-and-rescue team be our protagonist’s heroes.
Other times we use
foreshadowing to build tension and suspense in our readers. We subtly clue them
that disaster is coming and let them worry about when it might happen.
