11:1-8 When they drew
near to Jerusalem
to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of
olives, he sent two of his disciples
and told them. "Go into the
village opposite you. Entering
into it immediately you will find a colt tied there, on which nobody has
ever ridden. Loosen it and bring
it back. If anyone says to you
“Why are you doing this?" say “The Lord
has need of it.” Then bring it
here immediately." They went
out and found a colt that had been tied at outside a door on the open
street. And they untied it. Some of the people standing there said
to them. “What are you doing,
untying the colt?” They said
what Jesus had told them to say.
And the people let them go.
And they brought the colt to Jesus. They threw their garments on it and he sat on it. Also many of their garments were strewn
along the way. Others made wisps
of twigs, cutting them out of the fields.

15:21 They co-opted a
man called Simon from Cyrene who was coming in
from the country. He was the
father of Alexander and Rufus.
They required him to carry
the cross of (Jesus).
