Thus shall ye say vnto him, Because the Lord hath neede of him. 32 And they that were sent, went their way, and found euen as hee had said vnto them. 33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said vnto them, Why loose ye the Colt? 34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him. 35 And they brought him to Iesus: and they cast their garments vpon the Colt, and they set Iesus thereon. 36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way. 37 And when he was come nigh euen now at the descent of the mount of Oliues, the whole multitude of the disciples began to reioyce and praise God with a loud voice, for all the mighty workes that they had seene,

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Saying, go ye into the village over against [you],.... What village this was, is not said by any of the evangelists; it seems to be either Bethany, or Nob; and rather the latter, since the village of Bethany was fifteen furlongs, or near two miles from Jerusalem, John 11:18 and therefore must have been passed by Christ; whereas the tract called Bethany, at the Mount of Olives where Christ now was, was but a sabbath day's journey, or about a mile, Luke 24:50 compared with Acts 1:12.

Acts 1:12- :

in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied: in

Matthew 21:2 it is said, an ass, and a colt with her; which agrees with the prophecy in Zechariah 9:9 and which, no doubt, was matter of fact: nor does Mark and Luke contradict it, though they do not express it:

whereon yet never man sat, loose him, and bring [him] hither; for it seems that Christ stayed at the above place, until the disciples went and fetched it.
