Mark 11:9-11

Our life, and our whole purpose in the gift of life, is to know and love our Savior. 

Without His willingness to be the sacrificial Lamb, to die in our place, there would be no hope for mankind. The grace of God cannot be purchased, it is a gift, from the very mind, body and heart of our Triune God.

No one will care for you like God…no one! 

God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him will not die but have everlasting life in relationship with Him.

Mark 11:9-11

 9 Then those who went before and those who followed cried out, saying:

“Hosanna!

‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’

10 Blessed is the kingdom of our father David

That comes in the name of the Lord!

Hosanna in the highest!”

11 And Jesus went into Jerusalem and into the temple. So when He had looked around at all things, as the hour was already late, He went out to Bethany with the twelve.

A transliteration of the Hebrew phrase hoshi'ah na, which means “save us!”  This announcement happens in response to a display of God’s favor. It reflects the expectation that the kingdom of David would be restored to Israel, involving someone from David’s line sitting on the throne and the restoration of Israel. Faithlife Bible.

This was the triumphal entry on Palm Sunday. The crowd recognized Jesus’ lordship by repeating a messianic psalm118:25, 26. Jesus retired to Bethany each night, perhaps staying in a friend’s home (maybe Lazarus’s or Simon’s. But in view of the fact that Jesus appears to have had no breakfast the next day, He and the Twelve may have camped outside this night. NKJ Bible.

Psalm 118:26 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD! We have blessed you from the house of the LORD.

Psalm 148:1 Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the heights!

Matthew 21:9 Then the multitudes who went before and those who followed cried out, saying: “Hosanna to the Son of David! ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD! ’Hosanna in the highest!”

Matthew 21:12 | Then Jesus went into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.
