35 Then they brought it to Jesus, and after throwing their outer garments on the colt they placed Jesus on it.

Luke 19:35 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 19:35

And they brought him to Jesus
That is, the colt:

and they cast their garments upon the colt;
that is, the disciples, who brought him to Jesus; the Persic version here, as in ( Matthew 21:7 ) renders it very wrongly, "Jesus put his own garment on its back, and sat on it"; it follows,

and they set Jesus thereon;
in order to ride upon him, as he did to Jerusalem.

Luke 19:35 In-Context

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.
