For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.
For this cause the people went out to meet Him because they had heard that He had done the miracle, and the report of what He had done drew crowds to see Him at His entry into Jerusalem. News of the miracle and of His arrival brought people to gather around Him as He rode in, with those joining His procession and those coming from the city to welcome Him meeting together. The miracle they had heard of was the raising of Lazarus from the dead. It was a crowning miracle that powerfully stirred the people and drew an enthusiastic crowd.
This meeting took place when Christ rode on a donkey into Jerusalem in His triumphal entry. It was an occasion just before His betrayal and death. It was during the feast, when He was staying nearby and the crowd came to where He was. The report of His works swelled the welcoming procession into Jerusalem. Both those traveling with Him and those coming out from Jerusalem were drawn together to gather enthusiastically around Him.
Those who met Him included people He had healed and people He had raised from the dead, and they praised His works. Yet only a few days later many who had praised Him at His entry joined the cry for His crucifixion.
