A Word of Triumph

On Palm Sunday, we remember Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem as the crowd cried triumphantly: “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” But little did the people know what really awaited Jesus. Their cries of Hosanna, which means “God save us!” would dissolve into a very different cry of triumph from the cross. Very different from what the crowd anticipated and yet an answer to their hosannas once for all: “it is finished!” 
Scripture: John 19:17-30
