Lesson 8.1: Jesus' Triumphal Entry
Matthew 21:1-17 ; Mark 11: 1-11;
Luke 19:28-44; John 12: 12-19
Luke 19:28-44; John 12: 12-19
This week we will step out of our study through
the Old Testament and briefly turn our attention to the last week of Jesus’
earthly ministry. We start with a look at the triumphal entry, when Jesus
entered Jerusalem on a donkey. The crowds that day welcomed Him as King, but
they didn’t really understand what kind of King He was.
Jesus was the
Messiah spoken about by the prophet Zechariah: “Look, your King is coming to
you; He is righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt,
the foal of a donkey” (Zechariah 9:9). One day, Jesus will return to earth on a
white horse as King over everything. (Revelation 19:11)
Help your kids see that Jesus was first the
suffering servant when He came to earth the first time, but when He returns, He
will be the conquering King.
