1. Fetching the Donkey:

Instruction from Jesus: Jesus sent two of His disciples ahead to a village to fetch a donkey and its colt. He instructed them to untie the animals and bring them to Him, saying that if anyone asked, they should say the Lord needs them.

Obedience: The disciples followed Jesus’ instructions exactly. They found the donkey and colt, brought them to Jesus, and placed their cloaks on them for Jesus to sit on (Matthew 21:1-7).

2. Preparation and Participation:

Cloaks on the Donkey: They prepared the donkey for Jesus by placing their cloaks on its back, serving as a makeshift saddle.

Leading the Procession: The disciples were part of the procession, likely helping to manage the crowd and ensuring Jesus’ safe passage into the city.
