Entered and passed through - Was passing through. Our Lord had not as yet passed through Jericho - he was only passing through it; for the house of Zaccheus, in which he was to lodge, Luke 19:5, was in it.
And Jesus entered ... - See the notes at Matthew 20:29. This means, perhaps, "he was passing" through Jericho when Zacchaeus saw him. His house was "in" Jericho.
19:1 He passed through Jericho - So that Zaccheus must have lived near the end of the town: the tree was in the town itself.And he was rich - These words seem to refer to the discourse in the last chapter, Luke 18:24 - 27, particularly to Luke 18:27 .Zaccheus is a proof, that it is possible by the power of God for even a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.
