This lesson was recorded in June 2019. This past week we had to cancel our regular bible study due to Hurricane Ida. I wanted to get a video posted, and this is one of our favorites but had not been published before.
As Jesus enters Jerusalem, he is very intentional with his actions that publicly declare that He is the King. One very intentional act is to stop at the village of Bethphage before getting on the donkey.
What is the significance of Bethphage relative to coming "into" Jerusalem?
Join us as we explore the cultural context of Jesus' actions.
