FIFTH PART: SOJOURN AT JERUSALEM, Luke 19:28 to Luke 21:38.

This part includes three principal events: I. The entry of Jesus into Jerusalem (Luke 19:28-44). II. The exercise of His Messianic sovereignty in the temple (Luke 19:45 to Luke 21:4). III. The prophecy of the destruction of Jerusalem and of the Jewish people (Luke 21:5-38).

The relation between these three events is easily understood. The first is the final appeal of Jesus to His people; with the second there is connected the decisive rejection of Israel; the third is, as it were, the pronouncing of the sentence which falls on this refusal.
