Contextual Overview
1 As they were approaching Yerushalayim, near Beit-Pagei and Beit-Anyah, by the Mount of Olives, Yeshua sent two of his talmidim 2 with these instructions: "Go into the village ahead of you; and as soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there that has never been ridden. Untie it, and bring it here. 3 If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you doing this?' tell him, ‘The Lord needs it,' and he will send it here right away." 4 They went off and found a colt in the street tied in a doorway, and they untied it. 5 The bystanders said to them, "What are you doing, untying that colt?" 6 They gave the answer Yeshua had told them to give, and they let them continue. 7 They brought the colt to Yeshua and threw their robes on it, and he sat on it. 8 Many people carpeted the road with their clothing, while others spread out green branches which they had cut in the fields. 9 Those who were ahead and those behind shouted, "Please! Deliver us!" "Blessed is he who comes in the name of Adonai !" 10 "Blessed is the coming Kingdom of our father David!" and, " You in the highest heaven! Please! Deliver us!"

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they went their way,.... The two disciples went to the village, where Christ sent them, without objecting any difficulties that might present, in the execution of these orders:
and found the colt tied by the door without; in the street, fastened to the door of the owner's house, at the town's end:
in a place where two ways met; to go into and out of the village; at the corner house, where two ways met; so that the place was very public, and such an affair could not be transacted, without being seen:
and they loose him; as soon as ever they came to the place, they immediately began to untie the colt, and were going away with him.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this passage illustrated in the notes at Matthew 21:1-16.
Mark 11:4
Two ways met - A crossroads. A public place, probably near the center of the village.
Mark 11:5
What do ye, loosing the colt? - Or, why do ye do this? What authority have you for doing it?
See this passage illustrated in the notes at Matthew 21:1-16.
