Context
The Triumphal Entry
11:1 Now as they approached Jerusalem , near Bethphage and Bethany , at the Mount of Olives , Jesus sent two of his disciples
11:2 and said to them , “Go to the village ahead of you . As soon as you enter it , you will find a colt tied there that has never been ridden . Untie it and bring it here.
11:3 If anyone says to you , ‘Why are you doing this ?’ say , ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here soon .’”
11:4 So they went and found a colt tied at a door , outside in the street , and untied it .
11:5 Some people standing there said to them , “What are you doing , untying that colt ?”
11:6 They replied as Jesus had told them , and the bystanders let them go .
11:7 Then they brought the colt to Jesus , threw their cloaks on it , and he sat on it .
11:8 Many spread their cloaks on the road and others spread branches they had cut in the fields .
11:9 Both those who went ahead and those who followed kept shouting , “Hosanna ! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord !
11:10 Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David ! Hosanna in the highest !”
