2012 LifeWay Christian Resources

TEACHER BIBLE STUDY It was time to celebrate the Passover. Many of God’s people traveled to Jerusalem for the
occasion. Jesus and His disciples traveled to Jerusalem as well. Jesus made a spectacular
entrance into the city. He rode a donkey, and people laid branches and their robes on the ground
in front of Him. The people welcoming Jesus into Jerusalem believed He was the promised
Messiah, but they expected Him to be a political leader who would overthrow Roman oppression
and set up an earthly throne. Jesus sent a different message when He entered Jerusalem.
First, Jesus entered Jerusalem. Read Zechariah 9:9. Jesus fulfilled this prophecy. He was the
One Zechariah spoke about. Jesus was saying, “I am your King. But I am not here to fight. I
come humbly. I am coming to save you.” Jesus entered the temple and turned over the tables of
the money changers and those selling doves. Read Isaiah 56:6-7. Jesus referred to Isaiah,
declaring that His kingship would not just be over the Jews but over all people.
While Jesus was in the temple, He healed the blind and the lame. Check out the words of Isaiah
35:4-6. Jesus’ actions declared, “I am not just your King; I am also your God.”
Finally, the priests and the scribes in the temple heard the children worshiping Jesus as their
King. “Do You hear what these children are saying?” they asked. Jesus replied, quoting Psalm
8:2: “Have you never read: You have prepared praise from the mouths of children and nursing
infants?” Jesus gladly received their praise because He was worthy of their praise.
As we take a break from our chronological study to prepare for and celebrate Easter, help kids
connect the dots between God’s promises of a Messiah and Jesus’ coming. Help them understand
why Jesus came: to save the world from sin!

THE BIBLE STORY/OVERVIEW
Jesus’ Triumphal Entry
Matthew 21:1-17; Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:28-44; John 12:12-19
It was the time of year that the Israelites celebrated Passover. Many Israelites had traveled to
Jerusalem to remember what God had done when He rescued His people from slavery in Egypt.
Jesus and His disciples traveled to Jerusalem, too. When they neared Bethphage (BETH fayj)
and Bethany near the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of His disciples ahead into a village. “As
soon as you enter the village,” Jesus told them, “you will find a young donkey tied there. No one
has ever sat on it. Untie it and bring it here. If anyone says to you ‘Why are you doing this?’ say,
‘The Lord needs it.’” Jesus was going to fulfill a prophecy by the prophet Zechariah that said,
“Look, your King is coming to you, gentle, and mounted on a donkey.”
The disciples did as Jesus asked. As they untied the donkey, its owners said to them, “Why are
you untying the donkey?” “The Lord needs it,” they said. Then they brought the donkey to
Jesus, threw their robes onto the donkey, and helped Jesus get on it. People were spreading their
robes along the road, and others spread palm branches cut from the fields.
The whole crowd of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the
miracles they had seen. “The King who comes in the name of the Lord is the blessed One. Peace
in heaven and glory in the highest heaven! Hosanna!” The word hosanna means “save now.”
The people knew Jesus was their promised King!

Some of the Pharisees, the religious teachers, told Jesus, “Teacher, tell your disciples to be
quiet!” Jesus answered, “If they did not praise Me, the rocks would praise Me!”
Jesus went to the temple complex in Jerusalem and drove out everyone buying and selling in
the temple. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the chairs of those who were
selling doves. He quoted the prophet Isaiah and said, “My house will be called a house of prayer
for all nations. But you are making it into a den of thieves!”
While Jesus was in the temple complex, people who were blind and people who were lame
came to Him. The blind and lame were not allowed to worship in the temple. Jesus healed them.
The chief priests and scribes saw the miracles that Jesus performed and heard the children saying,
“Hosanna to the Son of David!” or “Our king is here! Our king is here!” Even the kids knew
Jesus was the promised King. The scribes and priests were angry and asked Jesus, “Do you hear
what these children are saying? They are saying you are a king!”
“Yes,” Jesus replied. “The Psalmist said: You have prepared praise from the mouths of
children and nursing infants.”
Jesus left them and went to the town of Bethany to spend the night.
Christ Connection: During Jesus’ triumphal entry, the people welcomed Him as King. Jesus
was the Messiah spoken about by the prophet Zechariah: “Look, your King is coming to you; He
is righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey”
(Zechariah 9:9).

[Large Group Leader enters carrying a palm branch and a robe. Lay them in front of you as you
introduce the session.]
Leader • If Jesus walked into our room right now, how would you greet Him? Would you clap?
Would you cheer? Today, we will learn about a time when the people greeted Jesus by laying
down branches and their robes, which would be like you or me laying down our coats. The
people laid down these items on the road. That was how people welcomed a king. They were
right. Jesus was King, and He deserved to be welcomed.
Timeline Map (1 minute) Timeline Map (small group visual pack – copies provided for Table Time Review)
Leader • We are going to skip forward hundreds of years in our timeline map to Easter. It’s the
time we remember and celebrate Jesus’ death and resurrection. But several events happened the
week before His death on the cross and before He left the tomb. Easter actually starts with Jesus
entering Jerusalem to a big celebration. That’s why today’s session is called “Jesus’ Triumphal
Entry.”

Big picture question (1 minute) Big Picture Question: How did people act when they saw Jesus? - 11x17 poster provided
Leader • Like at Christmas, sometimes we forget about the real meaning of Easter. Without
Jesus dying and rising again, we wouldn’t be able to trust Him as our Savior. All of the Bible
points us to this moment when Jesus gave His life and took the punishment for our sin.
Speaking of the Bible, let me see your Bible. Hold it up high!
It’s also time to see our big picture question for today. How did people act when they saw
Jesus?
Sing (5 minutes) Worship Song: “Jesus Saves” (on provided DVD)
Leader • For more than three years, Jesus went from city to city. He healed people, performed
miracles, and taught about who God is. The people saw Jesus as the forever king promised in
the Old Testament, but they were looking for an earthly king to make Israel a powerful nation
again.
We know what the Israelites didn’t know. Jesus is the King who would rule forever;
however, He is much more. He’s not just our King. He’s our Savior!
Sing together “Jesus Saves.”
Key passage (4 minutes) Key Passage Poster: Luke 24:46-47 (provided)
Worship Song: “Luke 24:46-47 Song” (on provided DVD)
Leader • Jesus was about to give His life for our sins, but the people—even Jesus’ disciples—
didn’t truly understand that. Jesus explained it after His death when God raised Him from the
dead. This is what He said.
Show the slide or poster of the unit’s key passage, Luke 24:46-47. Lead the kids to read the verse
together.
Leader • This was God’s plan from the very beginning. God’s plan was even written in the Old
Testament for the people to see. Jesus must suffer and die so people everywhere could be
forgiven for their sins.
Sing together “Luke 24:46-47.”
Tell the Bible story (10 minutes) “Jesus’ Triumphal Entry” video (on provided DVD)
Bibles, 1 per kid
Bible Story Picture Slide or Poster
Leader • Let’s see what happened before the events at the cross and at the tomb. Let’s see how
the people welcomed Jesus just days before He gave His life for them. Find Matthew 21 in
your Bible. We will also answer our big picture question, How did people act when they saw
Jesus?
Choose to tell the Bible story in your own words using the script provided, or show the “Jesus’
Triumphal Entry” video.

Leader • The people in Jerusalem were there to celebrate how God had rescued their relatives
from slavery in Egypt hundreds of years before. For many years after that, other nations had
ruled over the Israelites. God’s people were waiting for another rescue mentioned throughout
the Old Testament—the promise of a king who would rule over them forever.
The people had heard about and had even seen what Jesus had done. They saw the miracles,
how He healed the sick, and heard Him talk about the kingdom of God. Then Jesus came into
Jerusalem on a donkey, like the Old Testament said the King would come. The people believed
He must have been the One. They cheered and laid down palm branches. They even took off
their outer robes and spread them on the road. How did people act when they saw Jesus?
People welcomed Jesus to Jerusalem as their King.
Jesus went into the temple. He saw people being mistreated. He ran off people who were
cheating others. He healed those who were not allowed to enter the temple because they had
physical disabilities. All of these things were talked about in the Old Testament, too. Even the
children saw Jesus as a king. They began to worship Him. Jesus then left the city for the night.
Ask the following review questions:
What animal did Jesus ride into the city? (donkey, Matthew 21:4-6)
How did people act when they saw Jesus? People welcomed Jesus to Jerusalem as
their King. (Matthew 21:9)
What did Jesus say would cry out if the people didn’t praise Him? (the rocks, Luke
19:40)
Whom did Jesus heal so they could worship Him in the temple? (blind and lame,
Matthew 21:14)
When would Jesus return as their true King? (after His death and resurrection)
Discussion starter video (3 minutes) Unit 7, Session 1 - Discussion Starter Video (on provided DVD)
Big Picture Question: How did people act when they saw Jesus? - 11x17 poster provided
Leader • The people didn’t understand what kind of king Jesus was, but they welcomed Jesus
and praised Him. If they didn’t know and still welcomed Him with praises, shouldn’t we?
Speaking of welcoming, watch this video.
Show the discussion starter video.
Leader • Was she very welcoming? We should do our best to make sure we aren’t treating Jesus
the same way. Anytime you treat something as more important than Jesus, you are not
welcoming Him as King of your life. Can you think of ways we can welcome Jesus? Are there
things you can do that will show others that Jesus is the King of your life? Jesus wasn’t the
type of king the people in Jerusalem expected. He was much more. He came to give His life to
free them—not from a nation, but from sin. He is the eternal King. He rules over everything
and deserves praise as the King of our lives, too.

The Gospel: God’s Plan for Me (optional) Use Scripture and the guide provided with this session to explain to boys and girls how to become
a Christian. Assign individuals to meet with kids who have more questions. If this is not
possible, encourage boys and girls to ask their parents, small group leaders, or other Christian
adults any questions they may have about becoming a Christian.
Prayer (5 minutes) Big Picture Question: How did people act when they saw Jesus? - 11x17 poster provided
Leader • Let’s review and see if you can remember what we’ve learned today.
Show the big picture question slide or poster.
Leader • Can anyone tell me the answer to our big picture question? How did people act when
they saw Jesus? People welcomed Jesus to Jerusalem as their King.
Invite each kid to choose three friends and ask them the big picture question. The friends must
then answer the question.
Before transitioning to small group, make any necessary announcements. Lead the kids in
prayer. Pray that your kids will understand that God has a plan for their lives, and they must seek
Jesus to find it.
Dismiss to small groups for Table Time
The Gospel: God’s Plan for Me Ask kids if they have ever heard the word gospel. Clarify that the word gospel means “good
news.” It is the message about Christ, the kingdom of God, and salvation. Use the following
guide to share the gospel with kids.
God rules. Explain to kids that the Bible tells us God created everything, and He is in charge
of everything. Invite a volunteer to read Genesis 1:1 from the Bible. Read Revelation 4:11 or
Colossians 1:16-17 aloud and explain what these verses mean.
We sinned. Tell kids that since the time of Adam and Eve, everyone has chosen to disobey
God. (Romans 3:23) The Bible calls this sin. Because God is holy, God cannot be around sin.
Sin separates us from God and deserves God’s punishment of death. (Romans 6:23)
God provided. Choose a child to read John 3:16 aloud. Say that God sent His Son, Jesus, the
perfect solution to our sin problem, to rescue us from the punishment we deserve. It’s something
we, as sinners, could never earn on our own. Jesus alone saves us. Read and explain Ephesians
2:8-9.
Jesus gives. Share with kids that Jesus lived a perfect life, died on the cross for our sins, and
rose again. Because Jesus gave up His life for us, we can be welcomed into God’s family for
eternity. This is the best gift ever! Read Romans 5:8; 2 Corinthians 5:21; or 1 Peter 3:18.

We respond. Tell kids that they can respond to Jesus. Read Romans 10:9-10,13. Review
these aspects of our response: Believe in your heart that Jesus alone saves you through what He’s
already done on the cross. Repent, turning from self and sin to Jesus. Tell God and others that
your faith is in Jesus.
Offer to talk with any child who is interested in responding to Jesus.

Key passage activity (5 minutes) “Building a Tree” Instructions
Key Passage Poster: Luke 24:46-47 (provided)
Palm Branch Cards (with verse segments on them) – 20 cards/set; 1 set/classroom
Palm Tree “Trunk”
Masking Tape
Make sure the key passage, Luke 24:46-47, is visible for each child, either as the printed poster or
written on a dry erase board. Read the verse together.
Say • When we trust Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we welcome the same King the people
welcomed in Jerusalem. How did people act when they saw Jesus? People welcomed
Jesus to Jerusalem as their King. However, we see Jesus as the true King He is: much
more than the earthly king the people were expecting.
Before the session, tape the palm tree “trunk” to a wall in your classroom. Provide each child
with a palm branch card (or two, depending on your class size). Place a piece of masking tape on
the back side of each card. Slowly read the verse, and invite each child to come up when she
hears the words on her card. Each kid will press her card on the tree trunk to create a key passage
palm tree.
Activity choice (10 minutes)
Option 1: Praise Time
Invite the kids to spread out. Instruct them to listen closely as you give commands about a way
they can celebrate or praise God. The last kid to follow the instructions must sit down. After a
few turns, allow the kids seated to rejoin the game. Here are a few possible commands: clap,
yell, jump, raise your hands in the air, say “Hosanna,” spin around, and so forth. Speed up
commands as the game continues. After playing a few rounds, allow kids to share other ways
they can each praise God (obeying Him, praying, singing, and so forth).
Say • The people praised Jesus as He came into Jerusalem. How did people act when they saw
Jesus? People welcomed Jesus to Jerusalem as their King. We can welcome Jesus, too,
by our love, obedience, and worship of Him.
