Oops of the Day  

When Jesus rode a donkey into Jerusalem, it was showing his humility.

Matthew 21:5  –  Numbers 22:21  –  II Sammuel 18:9  –  I Kings 1:33, 38, 44  –  Judges 5:9-10  –  Judges 10:3-4  –  Judges 12:14

Fact of the Day

No! Donkeys were the ride of kings!

• Judge Deborah sang, “My heart is with Israel’s princes….you who ride on white donkeys.”
• Supreme Judge Jair led Israel 22 years and had 30 sons who rode 30 donkeys.
• Supreme Judge Abdon, who ruled Israel 8 years, had 70 sons and grandsons who rode on 70 donkeys.
• Absalom, King David’s son, rode on a mule.
• David ordained that his son, Solomon, ride on his own mule through the streets as  proof that he chose Solomon to be the next king.

Jesus was king on the donkey, but humble by riding on the colt of a donkey.
