Luke 19:38-40
19:38 a Blessings on the King ... glory in highest heaven! See Pss 118:26 b; 148:1 c. Psalm 118 d was one of the psalms sung by pilgrims traveling to Jerusalem for one of the festivals (Pss 113–118 e).• Jesus brought peace in heaven—reconciliation between God and human beings—but peace on earth awaits the future (cp. Luke 2:14 f; see 12:51-53 g; 19:41-44 h).
19:40 i Compare Isa 55:12 j, in which nature is said to rejoice at the coming of God’s salvation, and Hab 2:11 k, in which the stones of the walls cry out against Babylon.
