We're approaching the climax of Mark's Gospel as Jesus enters Jerusalem during his final week before crucifixion. This chapter reveals Jesus as both humble servant and powerful king who won't tolerate exploitation of his people or hypocrisy in worship.

• Jesus orchestrates his entry into Jerusalem on a donkey, fulfilling Messianic prophecy
• The crowds welcome him with palm branches and shouts of "Hosanna!"
• Jesus curses a fruitless fig tree as a prophetic action symbolizing judgment
• He cleanses the temple by driving out merchants who were exploiting worshippers
• Jesus teaches about faith that moves mountains and the importance of forgiveness in prayer
• Religious leaders challenge Jesus' authority but are silenced by his wisdom
• The central message: Don't mess with the King – take your relationship with God seriously
