Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of the reception made by the authors of the Old Polish New Testament Apocrypha in the field of crowd behavior during Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem. In the beginning, an analysis of canonical texts was carried out, and then the author of the study referred to the manner of reception of the representation of a collective hero in the Old Polish Apocrypha. The authors of these texts tried to accurately present the event, taking into account many elements of the evangelists' message, often adding their observations or including apocryphal threads in the narrative.
