Luke 19:34 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 19:34

And they said, the Lord hath need of him.
] Or, our Lord, as the above versions in verse 31 (Vulgate Latin and Ethiopic). They used the words Christ directed them to, and it had the effect he said it would; for the owners both let them go, and the colt with them directly; (See Gill on Matthew 21:6) and (See Gill on Mark 11:6).

Luke 19:34 In-Context

32 The two followers went into town and found the colt just as Jesus had told them.
33 As they were untying it, its owners came out and asked the followers, "Why are you untying our colt?"
34 The followers answered, "The Master needs it."
35 So they brought it to Jesus, threw their coats on the colt's back, and put Jesus on it.
36 As Jesus rode toward Jerusalem, others spread their coats on the road before him.
