And Jesus, when he had found. young ass, sat thereon.

This was Christ's triumphal entry into Jerusalem and the people expected him to become king at once. The outside of this triumph was very mean. He rode upon an ass's colt, which made no figure. This colt was borrowed. Christ went upon the water in. borrowed boat, ate the Passover in. borrowed chamber, was buried in. borrowed sepulchre, and here rode on. borrowed ass. He had no rich trappings, but only the garments of others.-- Matthew Henry.
