Luke 19:28 Douay-Rheims

And having said these things, he went before, going up to Jerusalem.

Ambrose of Milan

A.D. 339–397 Patristic

For it pleased not the Lord of the world to be borne upon the ass’s back, save that in a hidden mystery by a more inward sitting, the mystical Ruler might take His seat in the secret depths of men’s souls, guiding the footsteps of the mind, bridling the wantonness of the heart. His word is a rein, His word is a goad.
