“Let us also do likewise, and let us sing hymns, and give up our garments to them that bear Him. For what should we deserve, when some clothe the ass on which He was set, and others strew the garments even under her feet; but we, seeing him naked, and not being even commanded to strip ourselves, but to spend of what is laid by, not even so are liberal? And when they indeed attend upon Him before and behind, but we, when He comes unto us, send Him away, and thrust Him off and insult Him.” St John Chrysostom #PalmSunday #Hosanna #toTheSonofDavid #Hosannainthehighest #BlessedisHe #WhoComesintheNameofTheLord #HolyWeek #Pascha #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
