Some expected him to come into Jerusalem as a military leader riding a big horse, but he entered the city on the back of a lowly donkey. That did not matter to the common people; they greeted him waving palms and tossing flowers, shouting "Hosanna! Hosanna in the highest!" Bad things were ahead for Jesus, but today was a time of triumph as the people showed their love for him.
He would take the Passover meal with his disciples, charging them to remember him as they took bread and wine, symbolizing his body to be broken for them. He would be tried, condemned and nailed to the cross, but victory would follow as he would arise from the dead on Easter Sunday.
