The Triumphal Entry
Zechariah 9:9–13; Matthew 21:1–11; Luke 19:28–40; John 12:12–19
1And when they draw nigh unto Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,+ 2and saith unto them, Go your way into the village that is over against you: and straightway as ye enter into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon no man ever yet sat; loose him, and bring him.+ 3And if any one say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye, The Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him back hither.+ 4And they went away, and found a colt tied at the door without in the open street; and they loose him.+ 5And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt? 6And they said unto them even as Jesus had said: and they let them go. 7And they bring the colt unto Jesus, and cast on him their garments; and he sat upon him.+ 8And many spread their garments upon the way; and others branches, which they had cut from the fields.+ 9And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, Hosanna; Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord:+ 10Blessed [is] the kingdom that cometh, [the kingdom] of our father David: Hosanna in the highest.+ 11And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple; and when he had looked round about upon all things, it being now eventide, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.+Jesus Curses the Fig Tree
Matthew 21:18–22; Mark 11:20–25
12And on the morrow, when they were come out from Bethany, he hungered.+ 13And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find anything thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for it was not the season of figs.+ 14And he answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit from thee henceforward for ever. And his disciples heard it.+Jesus Cleanses the Temple
Matthew 21:12–17; Luke 19:45–48; John 2:12–25
15And they come to Jerusalem: and he entered into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and them that bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold the doves;+ 16and he would not suffer that any man should carry a vessel through the temple. 17And he taught, and said unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations? but ye have made it a den of robbers.+ 18And the chief priests and the scribes heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, for all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.+ 19And every evening he went forth out of the city.+The Withered Fig Tree
Matthew 21:18–22; Mark 11:12–14
20And as they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away from the roots.+ 21And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Rabbi, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.+ 22And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.+ 23Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that what he saith cometh to pass; he shall have it.+ 24Therefore I say unto you, All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.+ 25And whensoever ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have aught against any one; that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.+
