Context of Luke 19:29
27Now I must punish these other people that did not want me to rule over them. Bring them here and kill them in front of me.” ’ 28When Jesus had said all this, he went on in front of them. He was going towards Jerusalem. He was getting near to two villages called Bethphage and Bethany. They were on the Mount of Olives. Then Jesus sent two of his disciples to go further. 30He told them, ‘Go into the village that is in front of you. When you arrive there, you will find a young donkey. Someone has tied it there. Nobody has yet ridden on it. Undo the rope and bring the donkey here to me. 31Someone may ask you, “Why are you taking the donkey?” Then say to them, “The Master needs it.” ’
