12 Then, on the next day, the great crowd that had come to the feast day, when they had heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
13 took branches of palm trees, and they went ahead to meet him. And they were crying out: "Hosanna! Blessed is he who arrives in the name of the Lord, the king of Israel!"
14 And Jesus found a small donkey, and he sat upon it, just as it is written:
15 "Do not be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your king arrives, sitting on the colt of a donkey."
16 At first, his disciples did not realize these things. But when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that these things happened to him.
17 And so the crowd that had been with him, when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead, offered testimony.
18 Because of this, too, the crowd went out to meet him. For they heard that he had accomplished this sign.
