Gospel – Mark 11:1-10
1 When Jesus and his disciples drew near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples
2 and said to them, “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately on entering it, you will find a colt tethered on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it here.
3 If anyone should say to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ reply, ‘The Master has need of it and will send it back here at once.’”
4 So they went off and found a colt tethered at a gate outside on the street, and they untied it.
5 Some of the bystanders said to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt?”
6 They answered them just as Jesus had told them to, and they permitted them to do it.
7 So they brought the colt to Jesus and put their cloaks over it. And he sat on it.
8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, and others spread leafy branches that they had cut from the fields.
9 Those preceding him as well as those following kept crying out: “Hosanna!
10 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the kingdom of our father David that is to come! Hosanna in the highest!”
