Both those who went ahead and those who followed kept shouting,“ Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the highest!”
“ Tell Aaron and his sons,‘ This is the way you are to bless the Israelites. Say to them:“ The LORD bless you and protect you;The LORD make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious to you;The LORD lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.”’
“ What are you, you great mountain? Because of Zerubbabel you will become a level plain! And he will bring forth the temple capstone with shoutings of‘ Grace! Grace!’ because of this.”
