'Meet' in the Bible

So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary was sitting in the house.

(Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still in the place where Martha had come out to meet him.)

So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him. They began to shout, "Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the king of Israel!"

Because they had heard that Jesus had performed this miraculous sign, the crowd went out to meet him.
