Why did Jesus ride a donkey into Jerusalem for his Triumphal Entry? 

To show His meekness and humility, the first time He came to die on a cross for us, the second time Jesus comes as our conquering King!

The donkey is a formidable, brave, intelligent and humble creature.

I recent had a dream where I was in a large stadium in the middle of the field, and thousands of small children began walking out onto the field smiling, laughing, and chanting “Dave the Donkey” over and over. It was the most peaceful and happiest dream I ever had. When I woke up I thought of Dave the Donkey for many weeks before I finally decided to look it up. I never heard of Dave the Donkey before in my life so when I discovered that it was a Children’s story book about the donkey that Jesus rode on to Jerusalem before he was nailed to the cross, it floored me a little. I know it was a sign from God.

I have been to Jerusalem on a Holy Land tour but this is still very helpful visually and I'm seeing things I didn't see on my tour. Thank you.

Jesus bless your channel Dave,, make people arround this world know history in bible

Praise the Lord. Amen 🙏

Awesome, thank you so much, for sharing this clip. May Our GOD Almighty Bless And Protect YOU, Dave, IN His Mighty Way, today, and every day. Amen.

You did not answer your own question: Why did Jesus ride a donkey into Jerusalem for his Triumphal Entry? You only spoke of the events and what they led to, vaguely.

How cool to go to the very places your conveying the history of. The best "classroom" around.

Praise the Lord

He rode the donkey to show his humility and love for his chosen ones. They rejected him and crucified him. He is coming back riding on a noble creature/horse with a sword in his hand with fury and anger against all those who rejected him. At any given moment.

It would be nice to visit here someday. I’m glad I found this. I was looking up about Palm Sunday since it’s tomorrow. I use to watch this show on TBN.

Jesus rode on a small donkey to show His humbleness

GOD 🙏 IS THE GREATEST 🙌 Jesus is Lord 🙏 and savior and he died for our sins on the cross and rose on the third day GOD 🙏 IS THE GREATEST 🙌 Jesus is Lord 🙏 and savior and I love God and Jesus Christ with all my heart and soul and strength ❤️🙏❤️😇🙌🙏🏿❤️😇🙌🙏🏿❤️😇🙌🙏🏿❤️😇🙌🙏🏿❤️😇

Praise Him, praise Him 🙏

Thanks for drive in history I'm able to visit the holy Land with you. Thanks be to God for this insight

Why did Yahusha, the One you call[Jesus] come riding into Jerusalem on a Colt or Male donkey?....Well,its quite simple....He was fulfilling a three-fold prophecy,with a fourth one in the rear. The First PROPHECY can actually be found in the book of [Genesis] 49:10,which says.."The scepter will not depart from [Judah], nor the staff from between His feet, until Shiloh comes and the allegiance of the nations is His"! "He ties His [DONKEY] to the VINE, His [COLT] to the choicest "BRANCH". "He washes His garments in WINE[Blood] of[Sacrifice], His robes in the BLOOD of grapes,[ the GRAPES of Wrath when He returns His robe will be dipped in Blood!] The Second prophecy is found in [Isaiah] 62:11 Behold, YAHUAH has proclaimed to the end of the earth: "Say to the daughter of Zion"!, “Behold, your SALVATION comes; behold, His REWARD is with Him, and His recompense before Him.” The Third prophecy,of course, is found in [Zechariah] 9:9 "Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion"! "Shout in triumph, O daughter of Jerusalem"! "Behold, your King is coming to you"; "He is just and endowed with SALVATION, Humble, and mounted on a donkey, Even on a Colt [Male donkey], the foal of a donkey[She-ass]". Yahusha of Nazareth, meaning[Salvation of Nazareth] did indeed come into Jerusalem,riding upon a Colt,which is a male donkey,but He was not alone, the Mother[ She-ass] did not travel far from behind her baby male colt....And why?..... Lazareth [Eleazar] [who was raised from the DEAD and who was the very proof of Yahusha's Messiah-ship] was following close behind Him riding upon the Mother donkey,the [She-ass]. It was LAZARUS who was tied to the "VINE"[Christ] and He was also tied to the Colt[Male donkey] which carried the BRANCH from Nazareth [The Messiah]! The scriptures make it clear,when its says...And then..."It was at that point in time that ..."A large crowd of Jews[Israelites] learned that Jesus[Yahusha] was there'. "And they came not only because of Him, but also to see Lazarus[Eleazar], whom He had raised from the "DEAD"..."So the Chief priests[Levites] made plans to put "Lazarus" to "DEATH" as well"...[John] 12:10......And finally,LAST, but certainly not LEAST....Then there is the PROPHECY of 1st [Kings] [1:32] when King David said,.. “Call in for me Zadok, the [Priest], Nathan, the [Prophet], and Benaiah, son of Jehoiada.” So they came before the King.... David said, “Take my servants with you,” and .“Set my Son Solomon on my own MULE and take Him down to Gihon"."There Zadok, the [Priest] and Nathan, the [Prophet] are to ANOINT Him [King] over Israel".....I hope that helps...... That's all....Shalom

“ who can understand” his profound “ Ways “ when he walked “ the creator of the universe the masters when he walked “

The ending was so abrupt....so it seemed a bit odd and rushed

What’s that beat at the end of the video ?

This is nice

How can I meet you dear??

Love one another as I have loved u 😀

It wasn't strange it was showing the world that he was not prideful and he didn't have high standards as other did

Journey of evolution is long ahead and no rush of any kind with miss understandings of anything from the same beings all long, but different existences....

That Simbolisme To Said For Any Kind Of The People Are Very Slowly'' To Understand And Always Fight To Him Educate Event He Life Without Him Every Time In This Country, That Pictures Of The People Lieving In Israel Land The Country, .... God Bless All, ..... Cherrio To Win*.

did he ride on the donkey or on the colt?? because they said there was both!

If people would just read The Holy Scriptures KJV (People DIED to preserve This Holy Bible) pray for understanding! The symbolic meaning here is that HE is a Conquering King coming in peace! According to the custom A conquering King & Army approaches a village in need of food and water (NOT war)the village arms themselves for battle no time for talk! The King dismounts and takes a donkey and rides towards the village the people see a Conquering King comes in peace on a donkey so they put down their weapons and trade food & water for silver.

Humble Jesus

New subscriber here😊. Look at a Donkey is the only animal in the World with a cross on its back. Donkey symbolize Peace, The prince of Peace riding on a Donkey into Jerusalem. Coincidence? I don't think so. Thank you, Lord Jesus for taking All our sins on you.

He rode into Jerusalem so the crowd would proclaim him King of Israel, which gave the princes of this world the reason they needed to crucify him. Thus playing into God’s hand. 1 Corinthians 2:6-8 KJVS [6] Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: [7] But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom , which God ordained before the world unto our glory: [8] Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it , they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. The death of our Lord then set the stage of the return of our Lord as a part of the Holy Ghost. Which is the mystery of God, Christ in you the hope of glory, Col 1:27. John 17:21-23 KJVS [21] That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. [22] And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: [23] I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me. www.justifiedfreely.com

Matthew 21:2-7: Go into the village in front of you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me ... They brought the donkey and the colt and put on them their cloaks, and he sat on them.

Wrong question. The right question is why were the people already in Jerusalem with palm branches?

❤

I don't think this video answers the title question. In accordance with the royal Jewish custom (1:33,34/2 Kings 9:13), in kingly coronation, Jesus showed His acceptance of the tradition. And in giving evidence of His divinity, He chose a donkey "wherein yet never man sat" Luke 19:30). Ethologists affirm that unbroken mules are hopelessly stubborn due to fear of the unknown. But the animal on which Jesus rode, cooperated completely, recognizing its Creator's voice; even amidst all the clamor of a parade. The beast of burden, just like the sacrificial Passover lambs, led the Saviour to Calvarry.

From His birth till the end He did not show pomp and pose like some do

Because so many people jealous jesus crystal and the brave of jesus .

He rode donkey because donkeys don’t freak out. The turmoil of world sin that Jesus Christ has taken on himself was an immense burden and he needed to reach the Jerusalem because that’s where the prophets are persecuted and killed. Horses run at the sight of disturbances especially around dark powers that’s why horses eyes are covered. But with donkey and mules etc they are bred for service to the masters. They are humbled. It is indeed our God who is wise that he would allow donkey to help Jesus Christ and show the world that he served his Father as we should. Love your God with all your heart, mind and soul and seek his kingdom first. Also with donkey it representyhis humility people approached him and welcomed. Horse is s sign of war. Conquerors, kings and warriors travel on horses. Lo and behold Jesus Christ is coming as a conqueror to whom God has given everything and we will be with him. God bless

Jesus entered on the tenth of Nissan: Exodus 12:3 Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house:

For humilty reasons, plus the fact that a king rode on a donkey to make place, not war.

Herein lies the problem the church has taught us to "interpret" and make up stories in our heads rather than to read the Holy Scriptures KJV and pray for understanding! Solomon asked for wisdom and so you should also ask for the Knowledge of our Heavenly Father and Saviour!

Ok so there's also one reason why Jesus ride a colt, because in ancient days when a ruler won the battle against the enemy, they used to ride donkey. Donkey being slow to walk was ridden as all people can celebrate the victory. In Zechariah prophecy "See, your king comes to you, righteous and VICTORIOUS". So, Jesus before the battle against death entered victorious. He knew he has already won the battle. It was an early celebration, even week before..

Zec 9:9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. Another prophecy fulfilled……

The only thing it truly matters is that Christ was born he lived here perfectly he gave his life for us and he loves us that much that's all that really matters doesn't it

Does that prove Jesus's love for animals? Donkey is a poor animal which has been considered by us humans baselessly as a foolish valueless creature...Is it for this reason our Lord choose choose a donkey to ride on? Was He trying to prove that all animals including donkey have been created by Him and that no animal is inferior than the other

Poor God

Royal people rode burros in the time of David.

The Lord of all

He is coming back into the New Jerusalem.

it was prophetic..... come on people read the bible 📖 zechariah 9:9 Up until this time, when anyone had tried to declare Jesus king, He responded - “my time has not yet come”. The triumphal entry was the only time Jesus presented Himself as King - perfectly fulfilling the prophecy in Daniel 9:25 made over 500 years before these events, and in Zechariah 9:9 in the method of His entry and declaration. Jesus was crucified and cut off, just as the prophesy in Daniel 9:26 predicts also in remarkable accuracy. These are just 2 prophecies, relating to the triumphal entry, fulfilled by Jesus, showing He was the promised Messiah. If you don’t believe, please look the verses and detail up yourself.

Its the wrong question that everyone asks. But nobody asks.....why were they all in Jerusalem already with palm branches waiting for someone to come through THAT gate? The answer to this is what condemns the Jewish rejection of Yeshua as the Messiah.

well if you're not being truthful because the Bible says he rode on a donkey and a Colt at the same time I don't know how we did this kind of like a circus act I guess this is found in the Bible that's good that you didn't disable your comment section

Bible tells us not to eat meat...correct?

He did so to visually communicate that he is the king of Israel

This is not Jesus' church.

Aaah, I just love humans and their habit of destroying a place by building a temple above it, to commemorate the place they destroyed...to build a temple to remember it. I mean, why not leave the place as it was at the time of Jesus ? So we could see the path or place as it was black then? No. Dig it all up, and put a building there...that’ll do it! Blows my mind....

Zechariah 9:9 Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion!(A) Shout,(B) Daughter Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you,(C) righteous and victorious,(D) lowly and riding on a donkey,(E) on a colt, the foal of a donkey

Boost volume Why did Jesus ride a donkey into Jerusalem for his Triumphal Entry? Because autiomobiles would not be around for thousands of years.

Genesis 1 riding Genesis 2 haha

because his yugo was in the shop...?

It was the law since the EXODUS that the first born of every clean animal be offered to God. The first born donkey (colt) can be redeemed with a lamb in its place since donkeys are unclean and not worthy of sacrifice. If they want to keep the first born COLT of a ass (female donkey) they must purchase it with the blood of a lamb. If they don't do that they have to break the colts neck. That was The Law established from the passover. When Jesus rode the colt of an ass HE WAS THE LAMB We are the unclean redeemed by the lamb Jesus told his deciples to "borrow" the ass and her colt They would, in other words, be returned to the rightful owner after the sacrifice of the lamb. We will be returned to God our father and rightful owner

The donkey is stubborn 👋😀

Before dont have ferrari or bmw

First available vehicle.

it says that they could have cloak on( them) and he rode on( them) how can you ride on two animals at the same time I seen them do it in the circus but I don't think Jesus was doing it like a circus act maybe it's a mistake.

To make Jesus the Messiah as prophesied in Zechariah 9:9 .Actually Jesus was not the Jewish Messiah,just a prophet like others.The real Messiah is anoither person.

Couldve rode a horse to save on time & go play the good doctor back when nvm i dont want to sound like a douche

Why? Because cars, such as Toyota or BMW were unknown at that time!

It was only one!! Donkey!! Jesus rode into town on one donkey . Bibles are changing supernaturally as predicted in Amos PROPHECY is being fulfilled right now. Since 2016. Thousands of changes. Isaiah 116-9 No LONGER says the Lion will lay down with the Lamb instead it reads The WOLf will dwell with the Lamb. Wake up time is short 💝🦁🐑🕊💫

Y'all hood ain't... it, keep it real... I'm a mother less child
