Is this qhat we who take the name of Crist call Palm Sunday in Leviticus 23:39?

 39 "Also in the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall keep a feast unto the Lord seven days: on the first day shall be a sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a sabbath. 40 And ye shall take you on the first day the boughs of goodly trees, branches of palm trees, and the boughs of thick trees, and willows of the brook; and ye shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days. 41 And ye shall keep it a feast unto the Lord seven days in the year. It shall be a statute for ever in your generations: ye shall celebrate it in the seventh month."

Were the Jews performing this ritual in John 12:12-13

  • "On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord."
If so what is this saying who Jesus is?

A Psalm 24

The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof;
the world, and they that dwell therein.
For he hath founded it upon the seas,
and established it upon the floods.
Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord?
or who shall stand in his holy place?
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart;
who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
He shall receive the blessing from the Lord,
and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
This is the generation of them that seek him,
that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates;
and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors;
and the King of glory shall come in.
Who is this King of glory?
The Lord strong and mighty,
the Lord mighty in battle.
Lift up your heads, O ye gates;
even lift them up, ye everlasting doors;
and the King of glory shall come in.
10 Who is this King of glory?
The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.

What does orthotemeo mean?

2 Timothy 2:19 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. In the Greek the word is ὀρθοτομέω orthotoméō, or-thot-om-eh'-o; from a compound of G3717 and the base of G5114, to make a straight cut, i.e. (figuratively) to dissect (expound) correctly (the divine message):—rightly divide. Patrician. No other translation relays the message like this. Other translations will render it in innocuous statements such as the NASB95 "accurately handling." So what does that mean? Does it means to interpret anyway feel like? In Ephesians 3:2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward 3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. 4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) What is this mystery? If you read further in the chapter you will discover that the mystery is this Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Connecting The Dots Galatians 4:21-31 Genesis 16, 17 and 21

Galations 5: 29 But as then he that was born AFTER THE FLESH persecuted him that was born AFTER THE SPIRIT, even so it is now. 30. Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. 31. So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free. Genesis 17 Sarai gives Abram the bond servant Hagar to have his child, because she was barren. Hagar conceives and bare Ishmael. He is the son of the bond woman mentions in Galations 4. In Genesis 17 God changes Abram's name to Abraham and Sarai to Sarah by adding the Hebrew letter "He." When you pronounce the letter you breath out. So evidently this represents God breathed into Abraham and Sarah. In Genesis 21 God opens Sarah's womb and she bares Abraham Isaac who is the son of the free woman in Galations 4. So quite litterally Ishmael was born AFTER THE FLESH and Isaac was born AFTER THE SPIRIT.

I didn't deserve the death penalty for his crimes.

 Balo Holsh

I was almost aborted when my biological mother was two months pregnant. She was raped when she was only 14 years old. My adoptive parents took my biological mother in their home and took care of her in every sense during her whole pregnancy. When I was born they gave her the option to chose giving me up for adoption or keeping me. She chose to give me up and my parents adopted me. My adoptive parents kept taking care of my biological mother (whom I never met by choice) supported her, gave her a home and paid for her studies until she was 22, when she was able to be independent and make a living for herself (I know she got married to a great guy when she was 24). I adore my parents and I'll be forever grateful to my mother because thanks to them, I was adopted, not aborted. My biological father was a rapist but I didn't deserve the death penalty for his crimes.
