The next day the huge crowd that had arrived for the Feast
heard that Jesus was entering Jerusalem.
They broke off palm branches and went out to meet him.
And they cheered:
Hosanna!
Blessed is he who comes in God’s name!
Yes! The King of Israel!
Jesus got a young donkey and rode it,
just as the Scripture has it:
No fear, Daughter Zion:
See how your king comes,
riding a donkey’s colt.
See how your king comes,
riding a donkey’s colt.
The disciples didn’t notice the fulfillment of many Scriptures at the time,
but after Jesus was glorified,
they remembered that what was written about him
matched what was done to him.
