Irmela Posted August 9, 2022 Report Share Posted August 9, 2022 Q3. (John 12:12-13) What about the people's praise show they believed Jesus to be the Messiah? On this occasion, why doesn't Jesus shun such an open declaration that he is the Messiah, as he has in the past? The people heard that Yeshuah was coming and so they took palm branches in homage to Him as King, and went out to meet Him. Palm Branches signify joy, victory, triumph and peace. Then the people shouted praises from the Psalms: "Hosanna! Blessed is He Who comes in the Name of the Lord, even the King of Israel." Yeshuah did not shun this open declaration because the time had come for Him to lay down His Life and fulfill what He had come to Earth for this time, viz., to be the perfect sacrifice for the sins of the world.
