Matthew Chapter 21

Matthew Chapter 21
Matthew chapter 21 records Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem as crowds welcome Him with praise, recognizing Him as the promised Son of David. Riding on a donkey in fulfillment of prophecy, Jesus enters the city while people spread garments and palm branches before Him, shouting blessings and praise to God.

Jesus then cleanses the temple, driving out merchants and money changers who had corrupted it. He curses a barren fig tree as a sign of fruitless unbelief and teaches about faith and prayer. Religious leaders challenge His authority, and Jesus responds with parables exposing their rejection of God’s messengers and the coming judgment upon those who refuse to repent.
