The very same mode of shewing honour was adopted when Mr Farran, the consul at Damascus, visited Jerusalem in 1834, at a time of great distress.<\/p>\n 29-38.

Many also cast leaves of trees and palm branches before Him, in admiration, Mat 21:8<\/span>. The redeemed are to remember that to honor Christ they must repeatedly divest themselves of clothes of unrighteousness, Tit 3:5<\/span>.<\/p>\n (36) They spread their clothes in the way.<\/strong>Better, garments,<\/em> the word being the same as in the preceding verse, and in both cases meaning the outer garment or cloak. (See Note on Mat. 5:40<\/span>.) St. Luke, it may be noticed, does not mention the branches of trees of which St. Matthew and St. Mark speak. The verb implies the constantly repeated act of casting down the garments as the Lord rode on.<\/p>\n ‘And as he went, they spread their garments in the way.’<\/p>\n Garments were then spread in the path before the colt for Jesus to ride over. This was a regular way of showing honour to someone important. Rabbinic literature offers parallels, and Plutarch tells us that when Cato Minor left his troops they spread their clothes at his feet. This was a clear indication of the supreme importance of the rider and the honour in which He was held (see 2Ki 9:13<\/span> where the same happened to Jehu). Such an action may indicate the right of the king to possess their possessions, or the idea may have been one of maintaining the ass’s purity, and preventing it being soiled by the common ground. But everything about the incident indicates its connection with the proclamation of royalty to those in the know.<\/p>\n In Luk 19:11<\/span> we were told that they were expecting that this particular time of entry of Jesus into Jerusalem would have Messianic consequences. This was an idea which Jesus had, however, dampened down. Perhaps they now began to hope that this might be it. But Jesus was going out of His way to make it clear that there was nothing warlike about it. He wanted it to be more the recognition of a king coming in peace than the proclamation of a warrior Messiah. He had come to Jerusalem with His message of Salvation as proclaimed through His words.<\/p>\n The joyful reception by the people:<\/p>\n v. 36<\/strong>. And as He went, they spread their clothes in the way.<\/strong><\/p>\n v. 37<\/strong>. And when He was come nigh, even now at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen,<\/strong><\/p>\n v. 38<\/strong>. saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord. Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!<\/strong><\/p>\n v. 39<\/strong>. And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto Him, Master, rebuke Thy disciples.<\/strong><\/p>\n v. 40<\/strong>. And He answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.<\/p>\n <\/strong> As a snowball which begins to roll at the top of a mountain soon grows to a mighty avalanche, sweeping everything before it, so the enthusiasm that took hold of the disciples soon grew to a holy ecstasy, infecting also the bands of pilgrims that were going the same way and others that came out of the city to meet the procession. As Jesus continued on His way toward Jerusalem, they took their upper garments, their festival clothes, and spread them out on the road, as for the reception of a mighty king, an emperor. As He then reached the spot where the road doubles the brow of Mount Olivet, the excitement of the multitudes rose to its greatest height. The entire company of all the disciples broke forth into an exultant doxology, praising God for all the wonderful things that they had seen. They sang with a loud voice a section of the great Hallel, Psa 118:26<\/span>, with such additions as suited the occasion. They rendered all glory to the highest God for the rich manifestation of His grace in Christ the Redeemer. They sang His praises, because through the atonement of the Messiah the enmity between God and man had now been brought to an end. As on the great festivals, the multitudes could not restrain their joy, for the disciples were not alone in their enthusiastic outburst, but were ably seconded by the people. The joyous shout rose in a triumphant chorus, until the sides of the hills and the depths of the Kidron Valley resounded with the triumphant acclaim. And when some of the ubiquitous Pharisees began their usual grumbling, asking the Lord to rebuke and silence His disciples, they received poor comfort. For He told them that the very stones would burst forth in shouting if the disciples should hold their peace. The entire demonstration was arranged by God for the sake of His beloved Son. The Spirit of the Lord had taken hold of the pilgrims for a short while. God wanted to give His Son evidence and witness of the fact that the time was coming when all tongues would have to confess that Jesus is the Lord, though it was necessary for Him first to pass through the valley of His inexpressibly bitter Passion. Yet the work which He was to perform in Jerusalem was great and glorious and worthy of being praised by all creatures.<\/p>\n Luk 19:36<\/span> . , their garments, but no mention of branches in Lk., possibly from a feeling that they would be an encumbrance.<\/p>\n spread = were strewing under.
