Jesus Christ's Triumphant Entry into Jerusalem
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Joshua 4:19  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Joshua 4:19 specifies the dates when it says Israel came into the land on the 10th day of the first month, but it gives no clue as to which day of the week this was. It is the same date of Jesus' triumphal march into Jerusalem on the back of an ass before His crucifixion and the date to select the sacrificial lambs for Passover. The dates are beginning to align with Genesis 14-15 and Exodus 12. John W. Ritenbaugh Countdown to Pentecost 2001

Matthew 21:23  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) "These things" most specifically refers to what happened earlier in the chapter. He made His triumphal entry into the city on the back of a donkey, and the people shouted "Hosanna to the Lord!" A great multitude of people wished Him well. From there, He went into the Temple area and overturned the moneychangers' tables and disrupted those who were selling sacrificial animals. This was a direct affront to those who were in charge of the Temple and the Sanhedrin, so their question to Him is: "Who gave You the authority to do these things?" John W.
