What kind of king rides a donkey into the capital? Yes you are correct, Jesus is no ordinary king, and that's just the point he wanted to make. Still, the crowds loved him and hailed him as king for a day. All the while those who held the power didn't want a king like that, and they were thinking murder in their hearts. What a difference between these, and John the Baptizer who said "he must increase and I must decrease". There are two paths, and we can only choose one. Something to ponder during this the week of "Passion".
