Christmas Verses – The First Coming #21

December 21, 2017 3:21 am

Zechariah 9:9 NIV

Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion!
Shout, Daughter Jerusalem!
See, your king comes to you,
righteous and victorious,
lowly and riding on a donkey,
on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

This “coming” verse was lived out by Jesus at Passover (Easter). But many of the verses I looked through, and was referred to could be Christmas or Easter verses.

It is not hard to think that Mary was on a donkey going to Bethlehem, and then a donkey carried Jesus and Mary when they came from Egypt back to Galilee.
