Today is , start of the Holy Week of Easter, a day to remember how Christ was welcomed as he rode into Jerusalem.
They couldn't understand why a King would ride on a donkey.
Giotto shows us the emotion & strangeness of that moment with great clarity
c.1305, Padua

Today is

“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.”

through the gates,
the press of us,
straggling,
swarming,
forming
the configurations of
some transcendental dance,
wired for celebration,
the waters of Babylon
long forgotten...'

vying with each other;
it's difficult to know
where it's coming from.
Disorientation
has never been
a feature of the Feast...' https://t.co/visnCWTqEe

I see no reason not to continue my usual Easter tradition of posting a painting on each day of Holy Week. ‘Entry into Jerusalem’ is by the Spanish Baroque-period painter Pedro Orrente. (1580-1645).
