Palm Sunday commemorates the entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem (Matthew 21:1–9), when palm branches were placed in his path, before his arrest on Holy Thursday and his crucifixion on Good Friday. It thus marks the beginning of Holy Week, the final week of Lent. Christ is claiming His rightful place as the prophesied Messiah. Zechariah wrote: “Behold, your king comes to you, triumphant and victorious. He is humble and riding on an ass, on a colt, the foal of an ass.” (Zechariah 9:9) KJV. Every Jew would know Zechariah’s messianic prophecy. That’s why the crowds hailed Jesus as their king shouting, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” (Matthew 21:9). Jesus is the true Davidic Messiah and king. www.crosswalk.com www.godspeedts.com #palmsunday #prophecy #messiah #jesus #zechariah99 #hosanna #matthew219 #sunday #church (at United States of America) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-mnsI2lTZc/?igshid=50gezu4tb85m
