THE MESSAGE
Then Jesus entered and walked through Jericho. There was a man there, his name Zacchaeus, the head tax man and quite rich. He wanted desperately to see Jesus, but the crowd was in his way—he was a short man and couldn't see over the crowd. So he ran on ahead and climbed up in a sycamore tree so he could see Jesus when he came by.
Simplified Cowboy Version
Jesus finally got into Jericho and rode through town.

Contextual Overview

1 And as Jeshu entered and passed through Jirichu, 2 there was a certain man whose name was Zakai; he was rich and chief of the publicans: [fn] 3 and he wished [fn] to see Jeshu, who he was, and could not for the crowd, because in his stature Zakai was small. 4 And he ran before Jeshu, and ascended a wild fig-tree [fn] to see him, because so he was about to pass. 5 And when Jeshu came to that place, he saw him, and said to him, Be in haste, descend, Zakai; for to-day I must be at thy house. 6 And he was in haste, and descended, and received him rejoicing. 7 But when they all saw (this), they murmured, and said that with a man a sinner he hath gone in to abide. 8 But Zakai stood, and said to Jeshu, Behold, my Lord, the dividing of my wealth give I to the poor; and to every man, whatever I have wrongfully taken, fourfold I restore. 9 Jeshu saith to him, To-day is there salvation to this house, because this (man) also (is a) son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of man came to save that which was lost.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And [Jesus] entered, and passed through Jericho. Though the word "Jesus" is not in the original text it is rightly supplied in our version; as it is also in the Syriac, Persic, Ethiopic versions; for of him the words are manifestly spoken: after he had healed the blind man he met with near to Jericho, he entered into it, but made no stay in it, passed through it at once without stopping, though a very populous city; but here he had no work, either to perform miracles, or to convert sinners; though both, before he entered, and after he passed through it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

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.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XIX.

The conversion of Zaccheus, 1-10.

The parable of the nobleman, his ten servants, and the ten

pounds, 11-27.

Christ sends his disciples for a colt on which he rides into

Jerusalem, 28-40.

He weeps over the city, and foretells its destruction, 41-44.

Goes into the temple, and casts out the buyers and sellers,

45, 46.

The chief priests and the scribes seek to destroy him, but are

afraid of the people, who hear him attentively. 47, 48.

NOTES ON CHAP. XIX.

Verse Luke 19:1. Entered and passed throughWas 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.
