Matthew 21. 1-11
Here’s the reading for the coming Sunday.
This marks Palm Sunday, the beginning of Holy Week, where we remember Christ’s entry into Jerusalem.
Jesus enters not as a worldly king, but in humility, riding on a donkey, fulfilling prophecy and revealing the true nature of His kingship. The crowds recognise something significant and cry out, “Hosanna to the Son of David”, welcoming Him as the Messiah.
At the same time, there is confusion. As the city is stirred, people ask, “Who is this?” Even in this moment of praise, He is not fully understood.
Palm Sunday holds both sides together.
It is a moment of recognition, but also the beginning of the path to the Cross.
The same voices that welcome Him will soon turn.
The same city that praises will later reject.
Feel free to share your thoughts and reflections
