    KAI Ê-ga-gon au-TON pros ton ee-ay-SOON KAI e-pi-RIP-san-tes au-TÔN ta hi-MA-ti-a e-PI ton PÔ-lon e-pe-BI-ba-san ton ee-ay-SOON

Exegesis

The first finite verb egagon {ἤγαγον | ḗ-ga-gon} ‘they brought’ takes auton {αὐτὸν | au-tón} ‘him/it’ as its object, followed by the prepositional phrase pros ton Iesoun {πρὸς τὸν Ἰησοῦν | pròs tòn Iē-soûn} ‘to Jesus’, marking the goal of the movement.

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.
