And if any man say anything unto you, you shall say, The Lord has need of them; and immediately he will send them.
All Commentaries on Matthew 21:3 Go To Matthew 21
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
The Lord hath need. Not our Lord, or your Lord, but the Lord, viz. of all, both of the beasts and of their masters, and of every creature. Christ here discovers two of his own attributes, his omniscience and his supreme dominion. Now this was done not by accident, not through novelty or to avoid fatigue, but as the evangelist declares, to accomplish the prophecy of Isaias and of Zarcharias.
