Abstract:
In Mark 10-11, Jesus, en route from Jericho to Jerusalem, is hailed as a descendant of King David (i.e. the Jewish Messiah). Compares Jesus' entry to David's triumphal entry into Jerusalem. This Markan presentation of the entry into Jerusalem by one who has already effected a victory is precisely what permits a classification of his story as such. For there is already in existence a family of stories detailing the celebratory entry to a city by a hero figure (King David) who has previously achieved his triumph.
