Tell ye] Isaiah 62:11. Zechariah 9:9. John 12:15. the daughter of Sion] The citizens of Jerusalem, which was built on mount Sion. An Hebrew phrase, often used in the Lamentations. See the like, Psalms 45:12. and Psalms 137:7. sitting upon an asse] To shew his humility, and the peaceablenesse of his Kingdom, he rides on an asse, not on some stately war-horse. and a colt] Either he rid on them by turns, or else upon one of them, though both be mentioned. See the like, chap. 27. 44. for it is likely Christ rid onely upon the colt. See Luke 19:30. Mark 11:7. Or, even upon a colt. So the particle is used, Mark 10:45. of an asse] Gr. of one under the yoke. A tame asse, not a wilde one; but used to draw in the team, rather then to be ridden.
