This was to fulfill the predictions of Isaiah and Zechariah. By riding into Jerusalem in this manner, the Lord Jesus made a deliberate, unveiled claim to be the Messiah. The Jewish people were looking for the messiah to come.

Mat 21:4 All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying:

Mat 21:5 "TELL THE DAUGHTER OF ZION, 'BEHOLD, YOUR KING IS COMING TO YOU, LOWLY, AND SITTING ON A DONKEY, A COLT, THE FOAL OF A DONKEY.' "
