They found a colt tied at the door in the open street and they untied it. Those who stood there asked why are you untying the colt? They told them what Jesus said and they let them go.

Those who led the way and those who followed cried: Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in Jehovah's name! (Psalm 118:26) Blessed is the coming kingdom, the kingdom of our father David. Hosanna in the highest! He entered Jerusalem and went to the temple. When evening came he went with the twelve to Bethany.'

Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest heaven! (Psalms 118:26; 134:3) Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, Teacher, rebuke your disciples. He answered: I tell you if these remain quiet the stones will cry out! When he came close to the city he wept over it. He said: If you only knew today the things needed to bring peace! But they are hidden from your eyes. The time is coming when your enemies will surround you and blockade you with a rampart (wall) on all sides. They will close in on you.
