'Instructed' in the Bible

He instructed them to take nothing for the road except a walking stick: no bread, no traveling bag, no money in their belts.

Then He instructed them to have all the people sit down in groups on the green grass.

saying to them, “Go into the village in front of you, and immediately as you enter it, you will find a [donkey’s] colt tied, which has never been ridden by anyone; untie it and bring it here.
