What is the story of The Triumphant Entry into Jerusalem?
When they approached Jerusalem Jesus sent two disciples on ahead with instructions.”Go to the village there ahead of you. As soon as you get there, you will find a colt tied up that has never been ridden. Until it and bring it here. And if someone asks you why you are doing that, tell him that the Master needs it and will send it back at once.” So they took the colt and the bystanders asked them, “What are you doing, untying that colt?” They answered just as Jesus told them to and were let go. When Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey the people spread their cloaks on the road and cut palms off trees and laid them on the road. The people began to shout, “Praise God! God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord! God bless the coming kingdom of King David, our father! Praise God!” He entered the temple in Jerusalem but it was late so he too, the disciples to Bethany.
