over against. or just off the high road. Greek. apenanti = facing you. In Mark and Luke katenanti = opposite and below, preferred, here, by all the texts. But the text may have been altered to make Matt, agree with Mark and Luke.

straightway. immediately.

ass... colt. Here the two are sent for, because Zechariah 9:9 was to be fulfilled. In Mark, and Luke, only one (only one being necessary to fulfill the part of Zechariah quoted by John 12:14; John 12:15).

with. Greek. meta. The Lord. App-98.
