Robertson Word Pictures - Matthew 21:4 - 21:4


(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

By the prophet (dia tou prophētou). The first line is from Isa 62:11, the rest from Zec 9:9. John (Joh 12:14.) makes it clear that Jesus did not quote the passage himself. In Matthew it is not so plain, but probably it is his own comment about the incident. It is not Christ’s intention to fulfil the prophecy, simply that his conduct did fulfil it.
