Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem, marking the beginning of Holy Week. Falling on the Sunday before Easter, the day is defined by the biblical account of crowds waving palm branches and shouting “Hosanna” (meaning “save now”) as Jesus rode into the city on a humble donkey. Triumphal Entry: The event is recorded in all four Gospels (Matthew 21:1–11, Mark 11:1–11, Luke 19:28–44, and John 12:12–19).
