• Zechariah 9:9-10“Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion!Shout, daughter of Jerusalem!Look! Your king is coming to you:he is legitimate and victorious,humble and riding on a donkey—on a young donkey, the foal of a female donkey.10 I will remove the chariot from Ephraimand the warhorse from Jerusalem,and the battle bow will be removed.Then he will announce peace to the nations.His dominion will be from sea to seaand from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth.”

• Genesis 49:10-11“The sceptre will not depart from Judah,nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet,until he comes to whom it belongs;the nations will obey him.11 Binding his foal to the vine,and his colt to the choicest vine,he will wash his garments in wine,his robes in the blood of grapes.”

• 1 Kings 1“King David said, “Summon Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah son of Jehoiada.” They came before the king, 33 and he told them, “Take your master’s servants with you, put my son Solomon on my mule, and lead him down to Gihon. 34 There Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet will anoint him king over Israel; then blow the trumpet and declare, ‘Long live King Solomon!’ 35 Then follow him up as he comes and sits on my throne. He will be king in my place; I have decreed that he will be ruler over Israel and Judah.”

Hosea 9The time of judgment is about to arrive!The time of retribution is imminent!Let Israel know!Israel Rejects Hosea’s Prophetic ExhortationsThe prophet is considered a fool—the inspired man is viewed as a madman—because of the multitude of your sinsand your intense animosity.8 The prophet is a watchman over Ephraim on behalf of God,yet traps are laid for him along all of his paths;animosity rages against him in the land of his God.The Best of Times, the Worst of Times9 They have sunk deep into corruptionas in the days of Gibeah.He will remember their wrongdoing.He will repay them for their sins.10 When I found Israel, it was like finding grapes in the wilderness.I viewed your ancestors like an early fig on a fig tree in its first season.Then they came to Baal-Peor and they dedicated themselves to shame—they became as detestable as what they loved.

Mark 11:27-33“They came again to Jerusalem. While Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the experts in the law, and the elders came up to him 28 and said, “By what authority are you doing these things? Or who gave you this authority to do these things?” 29 Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question. Answer me and I will tell you by what authority I do these things:30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven or from people? Answer me.” 31 They discussed with one another, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Then why did you not believe him?’ 32 But if we say, ‘From people—’” (they feared the crowd, for they all considered John to be truly a prophet). 33 So they answered Jesus, “We don’t know.” Then Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
