Detail
John 12:12-19
The next day the great crowd that had come to the festival heard that Jesus
was coming to Jerusalem. So they took branches of palm trees and went out to
meet him, shouting, “Hosanna!
Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord— the King of Israel!”
Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it; as it is written:
“Do not be afraid, daughter of Zion. Look, your king is coming,
sitting on a donkey’s colt!”
His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when Jesus was
glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written of him and
had been done to him. So the crowd that had been with him when he called
Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to testify. It
was also because they heard that he had performed this sign that the crowd
went to meet him. The Pharisees then said to one another,
“You see, you can do nothing. Look, the world has gone after him!”
The Gospel of our Lord.
Praise be to Christ.
