How will Jerusalem welcome her Messiah? Although Jesus had always refused popular attempts to make him king, he chooses the time and prepares the details for his messianic entry into the city of "his Father David". 308 Acclaimed as Son of David, as the one who Brings Salvation (Hosanna means "Save!" or "Give salvation!"), the "King of Glory" Enters his City "riding on an ass". 309 Jesus conquers the Daughter of Zion, a figure of his Church, neither by ruse nor by violence, but by the humility that Bears Witness to the Truth. 310 and so the Subjects of his Kingdom on that day are children and God's Poor, who acclaim him as had the Angels when they announced him to the shepherds. 311 Their acclamation, "Blessed be he who Comes in the name of the Lord", 312 is taken up by the Church in the Sanctus of the Eucharistic Liturgy that introduces the memorial of the Lord's Passover.
