Commentary
Luke 19 is a chapter that speaks to the power of faith and the importance of humility. Jesus enters Jerusalem in a triumphant procession, and the people respond with joy and praise. Jesus then visits the temple and is angered by the money changers and merchants who have turned it into a marketplace. He drives them out and teaches the people about the importance of faith and humility.
