Ps 118, 26 Blessed is he who comes

(Ps 118, 26) Blessed is he who comes

[26] Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD. We bless you from the LORD'S house.

(CCC 560) Jesus' entry into Jerusalem manifested the coming of the kingdom that the King-Messiah was going to accomplish by the Passover of his Death and Resurrection. It is with the celebration of that entry on Palm Sunday that the Church's liturgy solemnly opens Holy Week.
