Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a young donkey because it was prophesied that He would; that Messiah would. This prophesy was written between 520-518 BCE.

Zechariah 9:9 (New International Version, ©2011)

The Coming of Zion's King

9 Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion!

Shout, Daughter Jerusalem!

See, your king comes to you,

righteous and victorious,

lowly and riding on a donkey,

on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

What did Jesus ride into Jerusalem at the Passover?

Mark's Gospel, followed by both Luke and John, simply had Jesus ride into Jerusalem on a colt, but Matthew expanded the story, making it seem ridiculous:21:2 Go into the village over against you and straightway you shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her, loose them and bring them unto me. 21:5 Behold thy king cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass and a colt the foal of an ass 21:7 And they brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.So, in Mark, Luke and John, Jesus rode a colt or young ass into Jerusalem. In Matthew, Jesus rode both an ass and a colt, apparently at the same time.

What did jesus do ride on a young colt?

Maybe a colt, maybe a donkey. Different translations, different animal. Matthew 21 Mark 11 Luke 19 John 12 The Gospel of John mentions palms being placed in the road for Jesus to ride over (a symbol of triumph). Thus, Palm Sunday is a partial reenactment of Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem on his donkey.
