Lukas 19:32

19:32 So those who were sent ahead found ¹  it exactly ²  as he had told them.

Lukas 19:35

19:35 Then ³  they brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks ⁴  on the colt, ⁵  and had Jesus get on ⁶  it.

[19:32]  ¹ tn Grk “sent ahead and went and found.”

[19:32]  ² sn Exactly as he had told them. Nothing in Luke 19-23 catches Jesus by surprise. Often he directs the action.

[19:35]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

[19:35]  ⁴ tn Grk “garments”; but this refers in context to their outer cloaks. The action is like 2 Kgs 9:13.

[19:35]  ⁵ sn See Zech 9:9.

[19:35]  ⁶ tn Although ἐπεβίβασαν (epebibasan) is frequently translated “set [Jesus] on it” or “put [Jesus] on it,” when used of a riding animal the verb can mean “to cause to mount” (L&N 15.98); thus here “had Jesus get on it.” The degree of assistance is not specified.
