Remember: The Bible tells us that crowds welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem, riding a young donkey.
Read and answer
Read the story first, then answer.
A parade to JerusalemIt was almost Passover, and the road to Jerusalem was full of travelers. Near the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two friends to a village. They found a young donkey, a colt, tied up, just as he had said. If anyone asked, they were to say that the Lord needed it. The friends put their cloaks on the colt, and Jesus rode it toward Jerusalem. In those days a king of peace rode a donkey, not a war horse. A big crowd came out to meet him. They spread their cloaks on the road and waved palm branches and shouted Hosanna. Some leaders were worried and whispered to each other. Jesus rode through the gate and into the temple, and he looked around at everything.
