Mark 11:4

And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door outside in a place where two ways met; and they loosed him.
Read Chapter 11

Augustine of Hippo

AD 430
“His disciples did not understand this at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that this had been written of him and had been done to him,” that is, when he had manifested the power of his resurrection…. In short, mentally comparing with the contents of Scripture what was accomplished both prior to and in the course of our Lord’s passion, they found this also in Scripture, that it was in accordance with the utterance of the prophets that he sat on an ass’s colt.

Justin Martyr

AD 165
The prophecy, “binding his foal to the vine, and washing his robe in the blood of the grape,” contained symbols of the things that were to happen to Christ, and of what he was to do. For the foal of an ass stood bound to a vine at the entrance of a village, and he ordered his disciples to bring it to him then. When it was brought, he mounted and sat upon it, and rode into Jerusalem, where the stately temple of the Jews was which you [Romans] have razed to the ground. After this he was crucified, in order that the rest of the prophecy be verified. For the words “washing his robe in the blood of the grape,” prefigured the passion he was to undergo, purifying with his blood those who believe in him.

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
