JOHN, xii. 12-19.-" On the next day much people that were
come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to
Jerusalem, took branches of palm-trees, and went forth to meet
him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that
cometh in the name of the Lord. And Jesus, when he had
found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written, Fear not,
daughter of Zion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's
colt. These things understood not his disciples at the first :
but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these
things were written of him, and that they had done these things
unto him. The people therefore that was with him when he
called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead,
bare record. For this cause the people also met him, for that
they heard that he had done this miracle. The Pharisees there-
fore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing?
behold, the world is gone after him."
