Show Notes

Jesus enters Jerusalem triumphantly, provoking messianic expectations and escalating tensions with Jewish religious leaders. He curses a fig tree, symbolizing the fruitless unbelief of Israel, and drives people out of the temple, asserting his judgment and authority over corrupt worship. Religious leaders challenge him, but Jesus evades their traps with wisdom and tact. This session reveals Jesus’ prophetic judgment, divine authority, and the mounting confrontation with the religious leaders in Jerusalem that will ultimately lead to his arrest and crucifixion. Verses: Mark 11:1-33; Zech. 9:9; Jer. 7 Teacher: Jerry Wierwille
