From Palm to Glory: Jesus’ Passion Week Through Mark’s EyesSample

A Humble King Arrives: Jesus’ Triumphal Entry
Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem on a donkey fulfilled God’s promises and showed His humility as the Messiah, even though the people misunderstood His mission.
Here is an excerpt of John Mathews and Esther Sisulu from the complete Mission 66 episode presenting Mark 11 & 12.
As you read through Mark 11, consider the following questions:
1. What does the word “Hosanna” mean, and why did the people shout it?
2. What were the people expecting Jesus to do as the Messiah?
Personal Reflection: In what ways are your expectations of the Messiah in line with God’s Word?
When you have finished the Bible reading today, take a few minutes to pray and give your expectations, cares, and plans to God. Ask Him to align your heart with His will and trust Him as your King.
