The Day of Jesus Triumphal Entry Luke 19:38-40; Matthew 21:6-9

Posted on March 26, 2013byideacreamanuela

On Sunday,Nisan 9, Jesus comes

to Jerusalem triumphantly. As he

approaches the cityriding on the

colt of an as.

IN FULFILLMENT ofZechariah

9:9most of the people that have

gathered around him spread their

outer garments on the road, while

others cut branches from the trees

and spread them out. Blessed isthe One coming as the King in Jehovahs name! they cry. Luke 19:38-40; Matthew 21:6-9.

Just a few weeks earlier, many in the crowd had seen Jesus resurrect Lazarus. Now these keep

telling others about that miracle. So as Jesus enters Jerusalem, the whole city is set in

commotion. Who is this? people ask. And the crowds keep saying: This is the prophet

Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee! Matthew 21:10, 11; John 12:17-19.

As is his custom when visiting Jerusalem, Jesus, the Great Teacher, goes to the temple to

teach. There the blind and the lame come to him, and he cures them. When the chief priests

and the scribes see this and they hear the boys in the temple crying out, Save, we pray, the

Son of David! they become angry. As Jesus continues teaching, he takes a good look at what

is going on in the temple.Matthew 21:15, 16; Mark 11:11.

How different Jesus approach is now from what it was six months earlier! He then came into

Jerusalem for the Festival of Tabernacles not openly but as in secret. (John 7:10) And he

always took measures to get away safely when his life was threatened. Now he openly enters

into the city where orders have been issued to seize him! It was also not Jesus custom to

advertise himself as the Messiah. (Isaiah 42:2; Mark 1:40-44) He did not want noisyadvertising or distorted reports about him passed from mouth to mouth. Now the crowds are

openly declaring him King and Saviorthe Messiahand he rebuffs the religious leaders

requests to silence them! Why the change? Because the hour has come for the Son of man to

be glorified, as Jesus announces the very next day.John 12:23.
