📚 Contexto Histórico
In the historical setting of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem, the chief priests and Pharisees were increasingly threatened by his popularity and teachings, as he challenged their authority through parables and actions like cleansing the temple. This verse specifically follows Jesus' Parable of the Wicked Tenants, which accused the religious leaders of rejecting God's messengers. Despite their desire to arrest him, they held back out of fear of the crowds, who revered Jesus as a prophet and might have rioted in his defense.
