2And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich. 3And he was seeking to see who Jesus was, but on account of the crowd he could not, because he was small in stature. 4So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him, for He was about to pass that way. 5And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up… (Luke 19:2-5)

(2 Samuel 12:6)
And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.” (Luke 19:9)
