Palm Sunday was the fulfillment of a prophecy by Zechariah: "Shout and cheer, Daughter Zion! Raise the roof, Daughter Jerusalem! Your king is coming! a good king who makes all things right, a humble king riding a donkey, a mere colt of a donkey" (9:9). It signified Jesus' coming as Israel's true king and would begin the countdown to his journey to the cross.
