3 And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.



Ver. 3. Say ye that the Lord hath need of him] See here six different arguments of our Saviour’s Deity: 1. That he knew there was such an ass colt. 2. That he sent for it. 3. Foresaw that the masters of the colt would question them that set it. 4. That he professeth himself the Lord of all. 5. That he could tell they would send the colt. 6. That accordingly they did so.
