Contextual Overview

28 After thus speaking, He journeyed onward, proceeding up to Jerusalem. 29 And when he was come near Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount called the Oliveyard, He sent two of the disciples on in front, 30 saying to them, "Go into the village facing you. On entering it you will find an ass's foal tied up which no one has ever yet ridden: untie it, and bring it here. 31 And if any one asks you, `Why are you untying the colt?' simply say, `The Master needs it.'" 32 So those who were sent went and found things as He had told them. 33 And while they were untying the colt the owners called out, "Why are you untying the colt?" 34 and they replied, "The Master needs it." 35 Then they brought it to Jesus, and after throwing their outer garments on the colt they placed Jesus on it. 36 So He rode on, while they carpeted the road with their garments. 37 And when He was now getting near Jerusalem, and descending the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began in their joy to praise God in loud voices for all the mighty deeds they had witnessed.

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- :.
