Discussion for 25 March 2017

John 12:12-16
12The next day the great crowd that had come to the festival heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. 13So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, shouting,
     "Hosanna!
     Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord —
          the King of Israel!”
14Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it; as it is written:
15  “Do not be afraid, daughter of Zion.
     Look, your king is coming,
          sitting on a donkey’s colt!”
16His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written of him and had been done to him.
FOR CONSIDERATION
- How does this version of Palm Sunday differ from the other Gospels?
- Why do all these people shouting praise one day scream "crucify" the next?
