John:12:12-19
Seeker Overlay ON
*
The next day a great multitude that had come to the feast ,
when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem ,
*
took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him ,
and cried out : "
Hosanna ! "
Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD !'
The King of Israel !"
*
Then Jesus ,
when He had found a young donkey ,
sat on it ;
as it is written :
* "
Fear not ,
daughter of Zion ;
Behold ,
your King is coming ,
Sitting on a donkey '
s colt ."
*
His disciples did not understand these things at first ;
but when Jesus was glorified ,
then they remembered that these things were written about Him and that they had done these things to Him .
*
Therefore the people ,
who were with Him when He called Lazarus out of his tomb and raised him from the dead ,
bore witness .
*
For this reason the people also met Him ,
because they heard that He had done this sign .
*
The Pharisees therefore said among themselves , "
You see that you are accomplishing nothing .
Look ,
the world has gone after Him !"
