The story of Jesus “triumphal entry” into Jerusalem at the beginning of the final week of His earthly ministry is very familiar. It is tragic to consider that many of those who shouted “Hosanna – blessed is He who comes in the Name of the LORD” would be the same ones who called vehemently for His crucifixion before the week was out. Jesus’ cleansing of the temple upon His arrival greatly displeased the Jewish leaders whose positions of power and wealth He had challenged by it.
