The PRESENTATION of the King (11:7-11)
The REASON for the donkey (v7)
The PROPHECY involved
Zechariah 9:9 predicted this 500 years earlier
Zion = Jerusalem (highest hill in Jerusalem)
Picture of Easter Gate today
The PICTURE involved
Jesus came as a servant Savior (to die, not reign)
The bearer of the world’s sin burden would enter riding on a lowly beast of burden
If a king were coming to make way, he rode a horse…if he was coming in peace, he rode a donkey
Jesus will come again on a horse (Revelation 19:11-16)
