Joshua rides into Jerusalem on an Ass with his Disciples (The First Triumphant
Entry )
1 And
when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
2 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
3 Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: whereon never man sat; loose them, and bring them unto me.
4 And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.
5 All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,
6 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass. [ The first binding according to Gen 49:11, fulfilling the words of Israel, the son of Isaac whose father was Abraham, saying unto the house of Judah his fourth son ]
7 And the disciples went, and did as Joshua commanded them,
8 And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them. and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met;
9 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?
10 And they said unto them even as Joshua had commanded: that The Lord hath need of them and they let them go.
11 And they brought the ass and the colt to Joshua and they cast their garments upon the ass, and they set Joshua thereon.
12 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
13 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
14 Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
15 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
16 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
17 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
18 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
19 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
20 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
21 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
22 And the multitude said, This is Joshua the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee. He entered into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
2 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
3 Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: whereon never man sat; loose them, and bring them unto me.
