Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Jesus, when he had found a young ass,.... Which he sent his disciples for, to a neighbouring village, and they brought to him:
sat thereon, as it is written; in Zechariah 9:9 though some part of the words seems to be taken out of Isaiah 62:11;
Isaiah 62:11- :; and so Nonnus paraphrases it here, "that it might be fulfilled which Esaias said".
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 21:1-16. Also Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:29-44.
John 12:16
Was glorified - Was raised from the dead, and had ascended to heaven.
John 12:17
Bare record - Testified that he had raised him, and, as was natural, spread the report through the city. This excited much attention, and the people came out in multitudes to meet one who had power to work such miracles.
John 12:19
Prevail nothing - All your efforts are ineffectual to stop the progress of his opinions, and to prevent the people from believing on him.
The world - As we should say, “Everybody - all the city has gone out.” The fact that he met with such success induced them to hasten their design of putting him to death, John 11:53.
