Context of Mark 11:9

7The two disciples brought the young donkey to Jesus. They put their coats on its back and Jesus sat on it. 8Many people then put their coats down on the road. Other people cut branches down from trees in the fields. They put the branches down on the road as well. Many people went in front of Jesus, and other people followed him. All of them were shouting, ‘We praise God! May the Lord God bless the king who comes with his authority! 10Great will be the kingdom of King David, our ancestor! We praise God above!’ 11Jesus went into Jerusalem and went to the temple. He looked at everything there. It was late in the day, so he then went out of the city to Bethany. The 12 apostles went with him.
