Contextual Overview

²⁸After he finished with his story, Jesus struck a long trot for Jerusalem. His twelve cowboys lined up behind him and followed. ²⁹When they neared Bethphage and Bethany at the Olive Hill, he sent two cowboys ahead. ³⁰"Go over there and you will find a young donkey that has never been ridden tied up next to a tree. Bring it to me. ³¹And if anyone asks what you are doing, say, 'The Top Hand needs it.'" ³²So they cowboys rode ahead, and everything was just as Jesus had said. ³³Even when they untied the colt, the owners asked them what they were doing. ³⁴The two cowboys said, "The Top Hand needs it for a little while." ³⁵They brought the colt to Jesus and threw a saddle blanket on it for him to sit on. ³⁶As he rode into Jerusalem, people laid their coats down on the ground in front of him. ³⁷When he turned down the road leading down from Olive Hill, all of the people following him began praising God for sending the Top Hand and all the miracles he had done.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And as he went,.... Riding on the colt towards Jerusalem:

they spread their clothes in the way; not the disciples, for they had put their garments upon the colt; but the multitude, which either came with him from Jericho, and other parts, or that met him from Jerusalem, or both; see Matthew 21:8 and so the Persic version here; "men put off their clothes and cast them in the way, that he might pass over then"; Matthew 21:8- :.
