In Mark 11:1–14, Jesus makes His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, fulfilling messianic prophecy by riding a colt, while the crowds shout “Hosanna” and quote Psalm 118, expecting a political deliverer. He then inspects the temple, finding it unworthy. On the way back, He curses a fig tree for bearing no fruit—symbolizing Israel’s spiritual barrenness and impending judgment. This passage marks the beginning of Passion Week and highlights Jesus’ authority, intentionality, and prophetic actions.
