Palm Sunday marked Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem, riding on a donkey to fulfill ancient prophecy. The crowds honored him by laying down palm branches and cloaks, shouting Hosanna and acknowledging him as king. His choice of a donkey symbolized peace and humility, contrasting with the expected image of a military conqueror. While many celebrated his arrival, others struggled to accept a humble king who didn't match their expectations of a powerful leader.
