paraphrased ‘enter the story’
🕊️reading & study 🕊️
29 - As Jesus was drawing near to the towns of Bethphage and Bethany, he was at the grove called Mount of Olives, which is across the (Kidron) valley from Jerusalem. He sent two of the disciples 30 to go into the nearby village, and told them, “When you enter the town you’ll find a colt tied, which no one has yet ridden. Untie it and bring it to me. 31 And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying the colt?’ tell them, ‘The Lord has need of it.’”
32 So the two went and found it just as he had told them. 33 And as they were untying the colt, its owners said, “Why are you untying the colt?” 34 They said, “The Lord has need of it.” 35 And they brought the colt to Jesus, threw their cloaks on it, and Jesus rode it across the valley. 36 And as he rode along, the people spread their cloaks on the road ahead of him. 37 As they drew near to Jerusalem, the people accompanying him, a multitude, began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen. 38 And they cried out, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the LORD! Peace in heaven (Rev.12:7-8) and glory in the highest!” 39 But some Pharisees nearby, and also in the crowd, said, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!” 40 But he told them, “I tell you, if they were silent, the very stones would be crying out.”
