Paragraph 3. THE MYSTERIES OF CHRIST’S LIFE

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

559
How will Jerusalem welcome her Messiah? Although Jesus had always refused
popular attempts to make him king, he chooses the time and prepares the details
for his messianic entry into the city of “his father
David”.³⁰⁸ Acclaimed as son of David, as the one who brings
salvation (Hosanna means “Save!” or “Give salvation!”), the
“King of glory” enters his City “riding on an ass”.³⁰⁹
Jesus conquers the Daughter of Zion, a figure of his Church, neither by ruse
nor by violence, but by the humility that bears witness to the
truth.³¹⁰ and so the subjects of his kingdom on that day are children
and God’s poor, who acclaim him as had the angels when they announced him to
the shepherds.³¹¹ Their acclamation, “Blessed be he who comes in
the name of the Lord”,³¹² is taken up by the Church in the Sanctus
of the Eucharistic liturgy that introduces the memorial of the Lord’s Passover.
