The Triumphal Entry
Mat 21:1 Now when they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
Mat 21:2 saying to them, “Go into the village in front of you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me.
Mat 21:3 If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord needs them,’ and he will send them at once.”
Mat 21:4 This took place to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet, saying,
Mat 21:5 “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, your king is coming to you, humble, and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.'”
Mat 21:6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them.
Mat 21:7 They brought the donkey and the colt and put on them their cloaks, and he sat on them.
Mat 21:8 Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
Mat 21:9 And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
Mat 21:10 And when he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up, saying, “Who is this?”
Mat 21:11 And the crowds said, “This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”
