12 The next day the
great crowd that had come for the Feast heard that Jesus was on his way to
Jerusalem. 13 They took palm branches
and went out to meet him, shouting,
"Hosanna!" "Blessed is he who
comes in the name of the Lord!"
"Blessed is the King of Israel!"
John 12:12-13
36 As he went along,
people spread their cloaks on the road.
37 When he came near the place where
the road goes down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began
joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen:
38 "Blessed is the king
who comes in
the name of the Lord!"
"Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"
39
Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, "Teacher, rebuke
your disciples!" 40 "I tell you," he
replied, "if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out." Luke 19:36-40
