021:004 This took place in order that the Prophet's prediction
might be fulfilled:
021:005 "Tell the Daughter of Zion, `See, thy King is coming to thee, gentle, and yet mounted on an ass, even on a colt the foal of a beast of burden.'"
021:006 So the disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them:
021:007 they brought the she-ass and the foal, and threw their outer garments on them. So He sat on them;
021:008 and most of the crowd kept spreading their garments along the road, while others cut branches from the trees and carpeted the road with them,
021:009 and the multitudes—some of the people preceding Him and some following—sang aloud, "God save the Son of David! Blessings on Him who comes in the Lord's name! God in the highest Heavens save Him!"
021:010 When He thus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was thrown
into commotion, every one inquiring, "Who is this?"
021:011 "This is Jesus, the Prophet, from Nazareth in Galilee,"
replied the crowds.
021:012 Entering the Temple, Jesus drove out all who were buying and selling there, and overturned the money-changers' tables and the seats of the pigeon-dealers.
021:013 "It is written," He said, "`My House shall be called the House
of Prayer', but you are making it a robbers' cave."
