Exegesis

The main action of the second clause is expressed by epebibasan ton Iesoun {ἐπεβίβασαν τὸν Ἰησοῦν | e-pe-bí-ba-san tòn Iē-soûn} ‘they seated Jesus’, with Jesus as the climactic direct object placed at the end of the sentence for emphasis. The syntax ties the preparation of the colt directly to the enthronement-like act of seating Jesus, underscoring the symbolic royal entry.

In contextLuke 19:35

And they brought it to Jesus , and after throwing their garments on the colt, they seated Jesus on it.
