This week is Holy Week. Let's review on the week before Jesus was crucified. He arrived in Betania about 3 kilometers north of Jerusalem on Saturday. Sunday is the day of Triumphal entry into Jerusalem. It is called "Palm Sunday". People expected him to be the King of Jewish Liberation, but he entered the castle as King of Peace with a donkey instead of a warhorse. Then, on Monday, he got angry at the high priest who was devouring profits in the temple garden, expelled him, and cleansed the temple.
