  Mark Chapter 11 As they approached Jerusalem at Bethpage
• 0:04
  and Bethany near the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his
• 0:07
  disciples and said to them, Go into the village opposite you,
• 0:10
  and immediately as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there
• 0:13
  on which no one yet has ever sat.
• 0:16
  Untie it and bring it here. If anyone says to you, why are
• 0:19
  you doing this? You say the Lord has need of it,
• 0:23
  and immediately he will send it back here.
• 0:25
  They went away and found a colt tied at the door outside in the
• 0:28
  street and they united it. Some of the bystanders were
• 0:32
  saying to them, What are you doing untying the colt?
• 0:35
  They spoke to them just as Jesus had told them, and they gave
• 0:37
  them permission. They brought the colt to Jesus
• 0:40
  and put their coats on it and he sat on it.
• 0:43
  And many spread their coats in the road, and others spread
• 0:45
  leafy branches which they had cut from the fields.
• 0:48
  Those who went in front and those who followed were
• 0:50
  shouting, Hosanna. Blessed is he who comes in the
• 0:53
  name of the Lord. Blessed is the coming Kingdom of
• 0:56
  our Father David Hosanna. In the highest.
• 0:59
  Jesus entered Jerusalem and came into the temple, and after
• 1:02
  looking around at everything, he left for Bethany with the 12.
• 1:05
  Since it was already late on the next day when they had left
• 1:08
  Bethany, he became hungry. Seeing at a distance a fig tree
• 1:11
  and leaf, he went to see if perhaps he could find anything
• 1:14
  on it. And when he came to it, he found
• 1:16
  nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.
• 1:20
  He said to it, May no one ever eat fruit from you again.
• 1:23
  And his disciples were listening.
• 1:26
  Then they came to Jerusalem, and he entered the temple and began
• 1:29
  to drive out those who were buying and selling in the
• 1:31
  temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and
• 1:34
  the seats of those who were selling doves.
• 1:36
  And he would not permit anyone to carry merchandise through the
• 1:38
  temple. And he began to teach and say to
• 1:41
  them, Is it not written? My house shall be called a House
• 1:45
  of prayer for all the nations, But you have made it a robber's
• 1:48
  den. The chief priest and the scribes
• 1:50
  heard this and began seeking how to destroy him, for they were
• 1:54
  afraid of him, for the whole crowd was astonished at his
• 1:57
  teaching. When evening came, they would go
• 1:59
  out of the city. As they were passing by in the
• 2:01
  morning, they saw the fig tree withered from the roots up.
• 2:05
  Being reminded, Peter said to him, Rabbi, look, the fig tree
• 2:08
  which you cursed has withered. And Jesus answered, saying to
• 2:13
  them, Have faith in God. Truly, I say to you, whoever
• 2:16
  says to this mountain be taken up and cast into the sea, and
• 2:20
  does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what He says is
• 2:23
  going to happen, it will be granted him.
• 2:25
  Therefore I say to you all things for which you pray and
• 2:28
  ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be
• 2:31
  granted you whenever you stand praying.
• 2:33
  Forgive if you have anything against anyone, so that your
• 2:37
  Father who is in heaven will also forgive you your
• 2:39
  transgressions. But if you do not forgive,
• 2:42
  neither will your Father who is in heaven forgive your
• 2:45
  transgressions. They came again to Jerusalem,
• 2:48
  and as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests and
• 2:50
  the scribes and the elders came to him and begin saying to him,
• 2:53
  By what authority are you doing these things, Or who gave you
• 2:57
  this authority to do these things?
• 2:59
  And Jesus said to them, I will ask you one question, and you
• 3:02
  answered me, and then I will tell you by what authority I do
• 3:05
  these things. Was the baptism of John from
• 3:08
  heaven or from men? Answer me.
• 3:12
  They began reasoning among themselves, saying, If we say
• 3:15
  from heaven, he will say, Then why did you not believe him?
• 3:18
  But shall we say from men? They were afraid of the people.
• 3:22
  For everyone consider John to have been a real prophet
• 3:25
  answering Jesus. They said we do not know.
• 3:28
  And Jesus said to them, Nor will I tell you by what authority I
• 3:31
  do these things.
