This took place so that what was spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled:
Tell Daughter Zion, “Look, your King is coming to you, gentle, and mounted on a donkey, even on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden.” Matthew 21: 4-5
Everything Jesus did fulfilled prophesy. Even something as odd as riding a donkey.
Walking into Holy Week today, let's focus on the events that led up to Jesus fulfilling the ultimate prophesy from God.
Hosana to the Son of David!
