Luke 19:1-4 ▼

1 Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through.

2 And there was a man called Zaccheus; he was a chief tax collector [a superintendent to whom others reported], and he was rich.

3 Zaccheus was trying to see who Jesus was, but he could not see because of the crowd, for he was short in stature.

4 So he ran on ahead [of the crowd] and climbed up in a sycamore tree in order to see Him, for He was about to pass through that way.
