Zechariah paints a powerful contrast in these chapters: a humble King who rides into Jerusalem in peace and a rejected Shepherd who faces betrayal. Both point forward to Christ—the Messiah who would be welcomed, then forsaken. These passages reveal the depth of God’s redemptive plan and the tragedy of hearts that reject the very One sent to save them.Questions:1.

How do these chapters challenge our understanding of what it means to follow a King who comes in humility rather than force?Use my affiliate link to get the CSB apologetics study bible hereMy video review the CSB Apologetics Study BibleAll our links are here
