Luke 19:36-40 Part 1of 2

As he rode along, the crowds spread out their garments on the road ahead of him. When he reached the place where the road started down the Mount of Olives, all of his followers began to shout and sing as they walked along, praising God for all the wonderful miracles they had seen. "Blessings on the King who comes in the name of the LORD! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest heaven!" But some of the Pharisees among the crowd said, "Teacher, rebuke your followers for saying things like that!" He replied, "If they kept quiet, the stones along the road would burst into cheers!"

As he rode along, the crowds spread out their garments on the road ahead of him.
2 Kings 9:12-13  "You're hiding something," they said. "Tell us." So Jehu told them, "He said to me, 'This is what the LORD says: I have anointed you to be king over Israel." Then they quickly spread out their cloaks on the bare steps and blew the ram's horn, shouting, "Jehu is king!" (see verses 1-13)
Matthew 21:8  Most of the crowd spread their garments on the road ahead of him, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. (se also Mark 11:8)

John 12:12-13  The next day (see verses 1-11), the news that Jesus was on the way to Jerusalem swept through the city.
