John 12:15 In-Context

13 they took palm branches and went out to meet Him. They kept shouting: " Hosanna ! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord -the King of Israel!"
14 Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written:
15 Fear no more, Daughter Zion; look! your King is coming, sitting on a donkey's colt.
16 His disciples did not understand these things at first. However, when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written about Him and that they had done these things to Him.
17 Meanwhile the crowd, which had been with Him when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead, continued to testify.
