just as the Scripture says,
012:015 "Fear not, Daughter of Zion! See, thy King is coming riding
on an ass's colt."
012:016 The meaning of this His disciples did not understand at the time;
but after Jesus was glorified they recollected that this
was written about Him, and that they had done this to Him.
012:017 The large number of people, however, who had been present when He
called Lazarus out of the tomb and brought him back to life,
related what they had witnessed.
012:018 This was also why the crowd came to meet Him, because they
had heard of His having performed that miracle.
012:019 The result was that the Pharisees said among themselves,
"Observe how idle all your efforts are! The world is
gone after him!"
012:020 Now some of those who used to come up to worship at the
Festival were Greeks.
012:021 They came to Philip, of Bethsaida in Galilee, with the request,
"Sir, we wish to see Jesus."
012:022 Philip came and told Andrew: Andrew and Philip told Jesus.
012:023 His answer was, "The time has come for the Son of Man
to be glorified.
012:024 In most solemn truth I tell you that unless the grain of wheat
falls into the ground and dies, it remains what it was--
a single grain; but that if it dies, it yields a rich harvest.
012:025 He who holds his life dear, is destroying it; and he who makes
his life of no account in this world shall keep it to the Life
of the Ages.
012:026 If a man wishes to be my servant, let him follow me;
and where I am, there too shall my servant be.
If a man wishes to be my servant, the Father will honour him.
