Overview & Insights
“Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!” (Luke 19:38)
Jesus sends two disciples ahead for a colt no one has ridden and descends the Mount of Olives as the whole crowd of disciples breaks into praise. When Pharisees tell him to silence them, Jesus answers that if the people were quiet the very stones would cry out.
