He was trying to see who Yeshua was, and couldn’t because of the crowd, because he was short.

“He said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant! You knew that I am an exacting man, taking up that which I didn’t lay down and reaping that which I didn’t sow.

Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’”

As he was now getting near, at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works which they had seen,
