The King Doing Kingly Things
from FRCP Sunday Morning Sermons
In Matthew 21:1-27, we see Jesus doing a funny thing. Good jokes rely on context and cultural references to setup the punchline. In this passage, Jesus tells a very serious joke, not so much full of humor but full of joy and controversy. “A poor rabbi rides into a capital city on a donkey…” Those who knew the scriptures and the cultural context got the joke: Jesus was saying he is King of the Kingdom! What’s funny about it is he didn’t look like any kings most people know of; in fact, he was almost an anti-king. So what did Jesus do that declared him to be King? And what might it look like to let him rule your life?
