1And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,
2And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him.

About Mark 11: Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem
Jesus enters Jerusalem as a king, clears the temple, curses the fig tree, and teaches about the parable of the tenants.
Commentary
Mark 11 is a chapter that speaks to the power of faith and the importance of trusting in God. In this chapter, Jesus enters Jerusalem and is met with a great celebration. The people are so excited to see him that they lay down their cloaks and palm branches in his path. This is a powerful demonstration of faith and devotion to Jesus.
