35 They brought it to Jesus, and (a)they threw their robes over the colt and put Jesus on it.(A)
36 As He rode along, people were spreading their coats on the road [as an act of homage before a king].(B)
37 As soon as He was approaching [Jerusalem], near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the entire multitude of the disciples [all those who were or claimed to be His followers] began praising God [adoring Him enthusiastically and] joyfully with loud voices for all the miracles and works of power that they had seen,
38 shouting,
“Blessed (celebrated, praised) is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!
Peace in heaven and glory (majesty, splendor) in the highest [heaven]!”(C)
Peace in heaven and glory (majesty, splendor) in the highest [heaven]!”(C)
