As they were approaching Yerushalayim, they came to Beit-Pagei on the Mount of Olives. Yeshua sent two talmidim
2
with these instructions: "Go into the village ahead of you, and you will immediately find a donkey tethered there with its colt. Untie them and bring them to me.
3
If anyone says anything to you, tell him, `The Lord needs them'; and he will let them go at once."
4
This happened in order to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet,
5
"Say to the daughter of Tziyon, `Look! Your King is coming to you, riding humbly on a donkey, and on a colt, the offspring of a beast of burden!'
6
So the talmidim went and did as Yeshua had directed them.
7
They brought the donkey and the colt and put their robes on them, and Yeshua sat on them.

Crowds of people carpeted the road with their clothing, while others cut branches from trees and spread them on the road.
