Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a donkey. He has the crowd behind him, and the ability to take political power, if that’s what he wanted. And yet he refuses to take the power over others in the way of this world. On the flip side, he knows that the donkey is symbol of the old Kings David and Solomon, and that by riding it into Jerusalem he’s making a statement about power and the way of God.
