Matthew 21: Your King comes to you

Read Matthew 21:1-46 before you meet.

In a few lines

In Matthew, those Jesus is speaking to answer his questions on both parables: "The first" (21:31), and "He will miserably destroy those miserable men" (21:41). And changed his mind (21:29) and repent (21:32) are one Greek verb, each with afterward.

The verse to carry

“Tell the daughter of Zion, behold, your King comes to you, humble, and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.”

Matthew 21:5

To talk about

  1. 1. When Jesus came into Jerusalem, "all the city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”" (21:10). How would you answer that question about Jesus in your own words this week?

  2. 2. The first son said, "I will not," but "afterward he changed his mind, and went" (21:29). When have you changed your mind after first saying no, and what helped you to go?

  3. 3. Twice Jesus answered, "Did you never read" (21:16, 21:42). What is one passage you have read many times that you would like to read again this week with fresh eyes?
