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 going in, He passed through Jericho. 2 And, behold, a man called by name Zaccheus; and he was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. 3 And he was seeking to see Jesus, who He is. And he was not able, because of the crowd, and he was little in stature. 4 And running ahead, he went up onto a sycamore tree, so that he might see Him; for He was going to pass through that way . 5 And as He came to the place, looking up, Jesus saw him, and said to him, Zaccheus, hurry, come down, for today I must stay in your house. 6 And having hastened, he came down and welcomed Him, rejoicing. 7 And having seen, all murmured, saying, He has gone in to stay with a sinful man. 8 But standing, Zaccheus said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, half of my possessions I give to the poor. And if in anything I accused anyone falsely, I restore it fourfold. 9 And Jesus said to him, Today salvation has come to this house, for he also is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the one being 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

pounds, 11-27.
