Context of Mark 11:9

7They brought the colt to Jesus and put their coats on it, and He sat on it. 8And many [of the people] spread their coats on the road [as an act of tribute and homage before a new king], and others [scattered a layer of] leafy branches which they had cut from the fields [honoring Him as Messiah]. Those who went in front and those who were following [Him] were shouting [in joy and praise], “Hosanna (Save, I pray)! Blessed (praised, glorified) is He who comes in the name of the Lord! 10Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the highest [heaven]!” 11Jesus entered Jerusalem and went to the temple [enclosure]; and after looking around at everything, He left for Bethany with the twelve [disciples], because it was already late [in the day].
