Psalms 118
The last of the Hallel psalms sung at the feasts: 'His mercy endureth for ever.' Rescued from enemies, the singer comes to the gates of righteousness; 'the stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner,' and the crowd cries 'Save now' and 'Blessed be he that cometh in the name of the LORD.'

Matthew and John see in the entry Zechariah's promise of a king coming humble, riding on a donkey; the crowd's cry echoes Psalm 118.
