The people’s reaction

• Disciples rejoice

  • Spread their cloaks on the ground (welcoming a king 2 Kings 9:13)

• Pharisees reject

  • They ask Jesus to rebuke His disciples
    

He Grieves Over the People – vv. 41-44

• Weeps over their rejection. We see the humanity of Jesus

• Isaiah 9:6. He is the Prince of Peace

• Isaiah 52:7 He Brings the message of peace

• Judgement awaits
  

He Enters the Temple – vv. 45-48

• Malachi 3:1-2. He enters the Temple but things are not as they should be.

• Denounced their worship. Rather than God being the focus… it is on man (UNPURE MOTIVES)

• Instead of praying for the people, the priests were preying on the people! (Warren Wiersbe)

• Communion with God verse Profit for man

• Daily teaching in the temple…THE KINGDOM
  

Questions to Consider:
