Entry of Jesus into Jerusalem
The disciples follow Jesus command and bring the ass and colt. They place clothes on them and set him on. A great multitude spreads garments and branches along the way. They cry Hosanna to the son of David and bless the one who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.
