Verse 28
§ 111. JESUS PROCEEDS TO JERUSALEM, Luke 19:28-44 .
Matthew 21:1-17; Mark 11:1-11; John 12:12-50.
28. Thus spoken… went before… up to Jerusalem And now our Lord, having explained what was not the purpose or the coming result of his going to Jerusalem, and having left for record his announcement that it was for no earthly kingdom, is ready to prosecute his march. After leaving the house of Zaccheus, he proceeds, followed by the passover crowd, to Bethany; at which place be arrives, as we suppose, on Friday afternoon, and spends the Saturday-Sabbath preceding the passion week; and at the supper, in the house of Simon the leper, is anointed by Mary. (See notes on Matthew 20:34.) The next day, being Palm-Sunday, and the first day of passion week, he makes his triumphal entry into Jerusalem. (See notes on Matthew 21:0.)
