Passion Week Begins…

The Story

On the Sunday of Jesus’ last physical week

on earth –the Passion Week begins

Jesus was coming to Jerusalem through

Bethany at the Mount of Olives

Jesus sends two disciples ahead to get the

colt he would ride into Jerusalem on (Zech

9: 9)

Tell them the Master has need of the colt

The Story continues

As Jesus rode into Jerusalem –through the

Golden Gate –people put their coats on the

road for the colt to walk on and other people

waved palm branches as He passed.

The people shouted, “Hosanna (Save us)!

Blessed is he who comes in the name of the

Lord!” “Blessed is the coming Kingdom of our

father David!” “Hosanna in the highest!”

Zechariah 9: 9

“Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of

Zion! Shout, Daughter of

Jerusalem!

See your King comes to you,

righteous and having salvation,

gentle and riding on a donkey, on a

colt, the foal of a donkey.”
