  1. THE GOSPEL OF JOHN III. The Opposition to the Son of God (5:1–12:50) A. At The Feast In Jerusalem (Jn 5:1-47) B. During The Passover (Jn 6:1-71) C. During The Feast Of Tabernacles (Jn7:1 – 10:21) D. During The Feast Of Dedication (Jn 10:22-42) E. Because Of The Death And Resurrection Of Lazarus (Jn 11:1-57)

  2. F. Because Of The Triumphal Entry (Jn12:1-50) 1. The Thanksgiving Dinner (12:1-11) a. Mary Worships (vv. 1-3) b. Judas Complains (vv. 4-6) c. Jesus Rebukes (vv. 7-8) d. The Priests Panic (vv. 9-11)

  3. 2. The Triumphal Entry (12:12-19) a. The People Worship (vv. 12-13) b. The Lord Returns (vv. 14-15) c. The Disciples Remember (v. 16) d. The People Testify (vv. 17-18) e. The Pharisees Complain (v. 19) Just a few preliminary remarks on the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem. This is an event of outstanding significance.

  4. The following points should be noted: 1. Jesus by means of His Triumphal Entry definitely indicates that He lays down His life; i.e., that He dies voluntarily. ~ His death had to be voluntary because God’s wrath against us could only be appeased by a sacrifice of obedience.

  5. 2. Jesus forces the members of the Sanhedrin to change their timetable (with respect to His execution) so that it will harmonize with His (and with the Father’s) timetable. 3. Jesus sets Himself forth as the Messiah. ~ Zech 9:9 4. He also shows the multitudes what kind of a Messiah He is. ~ He enters as the Prince of Peace.

  6. a. The People Worship (vv. 12-13) Read Jn 12:12-13. “Thenext day” is presumably Sunday of passion week. The “large crowd” is made up of pilgrims who have come to Jerusalem for “the feast”, i.e.for Passover. In Scripture the palm tree is a symbol of the righteousness and spiritual vigor of God’s children (Ps 92:12).

  7. ~ also a symbol of victory and peace in antiquity. ~ also normal to use palm branches when they conferred kingship on anyone or when they humbly asked pardon of a conqueror. Lulavin Lev 23:40 ~ The multitude waved palm branches in token of rejoicingand of triumph.

  8. That’s why they “began to shout, ‘Hosanna!....” The cry “Hosanna!” (lit. “give salvation now”)had come to be a term of acclamation or praise. ~ Ps 118:25 ~ a supplication addressed to Jehovah by the worshipper, who is convinced that the proper time for full deliverance has now at last arrived

  9. The succeeding words – BLESSED IS HE… – are also drawn from Psalm 118 (v. 26). ~ The use of this expression indicates that they recognized Christ as the Messiah. ~ Therefore, the Jews thought they were hailing the arrival of their King! But these people who were praising God for giving them a king had the wrong idea about Jesus. ~ Mk 11:8,9

  10. ~ Lk 19:37 ~ Thus they were deaf to the words of their prophets and blind to Jesus’ real mission. ~ Lk 19:41 ~ When it became apparent that Jesus was not going to fulfill their hopes, many people turned against Him.
