Context of Luke 19:29

27Bring my enemies, who didn’t want me to be their king. Kill them in front of me.’ ” 28After Jesus had given this illustration, he continued on his way to Jerusalem. When he came near Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives (as it was called), Jesus sent two of his disciples ahead of him. 30He said to them, “Go into the village ahead of you. As you enter, you will find a young donkey tied there. No one has ever sat on it. Untie it, and bring it. 31If anyone asks you why you are untying it, say that the Lord needs it.”
