Mark 11:1 - 18

Jesus heads to Jerusalem for the upcoming Passover feast.  As He enters, a procession welcomes Him with cries of Messianic blessing - announcing Him as the awaited Messiah.  Jesus spends the next few days teaching in the city, impressing the crowds with His understanding of God and the Law, and stirring fear in the minds of the religious leaders with His understanding of God and the Law.  Events are leading to their culmination.
