Exegesis
First, egagon {ἤγαγον | ḗ-ga-gon} ‘they brought’ takes a double accusative (tēn onon {τὴν ὄνον | tḗn ó-non} and ton pōlon {τὸν πῶλον | tòn pṓ-lon}) reflecting Semitic parallelism.
In context — Matthew 21:7
They brought the donkey and the colt, placed their garments on them, and He sat upon them.
