This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Is this the Son of David? (mēti houtos estin ho huios Daueiḋ). The form of the question expects the answer “no,” but they put it so because of the Pharisaic hostility towards Jesus. The multitudes “were amazed” or “stood out of themselves” (existanto), imperfect tense, vividly portraying the situation. They were almost beside themselves with excitement.
