John 12:11

In context

9A great crowd of the Jews learned that he was there, and they came — not only because of Jesus, but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. 10So the chief priests decided to kill Lazarus as well, 11since because of him many of the Jews were going over and believing in Jesus. 12The next day, the great crowd that had come for the festival heard that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem. 13They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord — the King of Israel!”
