  1. Matthew.21.1
    1As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two disciples,
  2. 2saying to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt beside her. Untie them and bring them to Me.
  3. 3If anyone questions you, tell him that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.”
  4. 4This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:
  5. 5“Say to the Daughter of Zion, ‘See, your King comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”
  6. 6So the disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them.
  7. 7They brought the donkey and the colt and laid their cloaks on them, and Jesus sat on them.
  8. 8A massive crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
  9. 9The crowds that went ahead of Him and those that followed were shouting: “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest!”
  10. 10When Jesus had entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?”
  11. 11The crowds replied, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.”
  12. Mark.11.15
    15When they arrived in Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began to drive out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those selling doves.
  13. 16And He would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts.
  14. 17Then Jesus began to teach them, and He declared, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”
  15. 18When the chief priests and scribes heard this, they looked for a way to kill Him. For they were afraid of Him, because the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching.
  16. 19And when evening came, Jesus and His disciples went out of the city.
  17. 13Later, they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.
  18. 14“Teacher,” they said, “we know that You are honest and seek favor from no one. Indeed, You are impartial and teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay them or not?”
  19. 15But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to inspect.”
  20. 16So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
  21. 17Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.
  22. 18Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him:
  23. 19“Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.
  24. 20Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died, leaving no children.
  25. 21Then the second one married the widow, but he also died and left no children. And the third did likewise.
  26. 22In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.
  27. 23In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
  28. 24Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?
  29. 25When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.
  30. 26But concerning the dead rising, have you not read about the burning bush in the Book of Moses, how God told him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?
  31. 27He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”
  32. 28Now one of the scribes had come up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”
  33. 29Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.
  34. 30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’
  35. 31The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”
  36. 32“Right, Teacher,” the scribe replied. “You have stated correctly that God is One and there is no other but Him,
  37. 33and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
  38. 34When Jesus saw that the man had answered wisely, He said, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one dared to question Him any further.
  39. 35While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, He asked, “How can the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?
  40. 36Speaking by the Holy Spirit, David himself declared: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’
