The crowd spread their garments in the street as Jesus rode by to honor him and recognize him as a royal figure, reflecting a traditional sign of respect and submission. This act was part of the triumphant entry into Jerusalem, symbolizing the people's recognition of Jesus as the Messiah. It also fulfilled prophetic scripture, highlighting the significance of his arrival and the anticipation of salvation he represented for the people.
Matthew {21:1} And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples, {21:8} And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed [them] in the way.Matthew [21:11] And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
The Bible actually says they 'spread palm branches on the road' in front of Jesus as he rode into the town.(John 12:12&13)on hearing that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, took the branches of palm trees and went out to meet him.....(Matthew 21:8) Most of the crowd spread their outer garments on the road, while others began cutting down branches from the trees and spreading them on the road.(Mark 11:8) Also, many spread their outer garments on the road, but others cut down foliage from the fields.(Revelation 7:9) After these things I saw, and, look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands.
The crowd was just ordinary people who followed Jesus. Jesus had been addressing the scribes and pharisees when a man from the crowd asked Jesus to settle a family dispute. Jesus told the parable as part of His reply to the man.
