No one expected it. Not Mary Magdalene, nor any of the other women and men who followed Jesus from Galilee.
March 24: Palm Sunday of the Lord’s Passion
Today’s liturgy begins with a commemoration of Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem. In Mark’s account of Jesus’ ministry, this is the only time Jesus visits Jerusalem since beginning his mission to his fellow Jews, calling them to repentance of faith in view of God’s final and decisive move in Israel’s life. Jesus comes to Jerusalem to issue that call to its people, urging them to respond without delay.
