Blessed, is he that is coming in the name of the Lord! 10 Blessed, is the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the highest!

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.
