Treading the trees

Jesus comes to Jerusalem riding over palm branches.  He is the promised king, and marches over the treetops into Jerusalem, up to the temple.

When the disciples hear the sound of the Wind-filled Jesus in the tops of the trees, they will know that Yahweh has gone before them (cf. 2 Samuel 5:24).
