It was in the springtime and many pilgrims were on their
way to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover, a yearly event held with
much excitement.
On the first day of this Holy Week Christ continues
His entrance into Jerusalem, riding on a colt which
He had given the command to secure, the foal of
an ass. *
Many believed Jesus would be the earthly king to deliver them
A new life and joy animated the people. The hope of the new kingdom was
again springing up!
But He declared His kingdom would not be of
this world!*Five hundred years before the birth of Christ
it was prophesied, foretelling the coming of the
King to Israel, this prophecy is now to be fulfilled.
Zechariah 9:9
