What animal did Jesus ride when he entered Jerusalem?

It was to fulfill the Prophet Zechariah's prophecy that the Messiah would enter Jerusalem riding on a donkey. Also, Jesus was not a king with all the earthly trappings of wealth. It signified his great humility to be riding upon a beast of burden. He himself was to bear the burden of sins.


Did Jesus rode atop an ass or a Colt into Jerusalem - Matthew 21 v5-7?

Good question. The King James translation and the Holman Christian Standard bible translation both say that He rode on both. As it says in verse 7, they laid their robes on them and He sat on them. Since it says He rode on both and I have a hard time picturing someone riding two animals at the same time and I assume that he rode on one at a time. In the old testament book of Zechariah, chapter 9 verse 9 it says, "... see, your King is coming to you; He is righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey." this was prophesy of Jesus riding into Jerusalem. It mentions two animals. The way it is written in Zechariah it could mean that He rode on the colt and it was just expounding on the fact that the colt was from a donkey or ass. Today all our Easter programs and paintings show Him atop a donkey. Since most paintings of Jesus show Him with blond hair and blue eyes we know that the paintings are up to the painters views. In the grand scheme of things, it is not important whether he rode one at a time or both at the same time, but rather that what was told in the old testament was true. It was prophesy fulfilled.-Edit: Secular Perspective Below-It is most likely that the author of Matthew was making a postdiction from the Old Testament quote from Zechariah 9:9. Matthew was not a very careful reader of the Old Testament. Zechariah 9:9 is a literary device known as 'Parallelism' where the author emphasizes something by repeating it. Matthew likely did not fully understand that Zechariah was describing the ass as a colt, rather than describing two separate animals, and so wrote in Matt 21:5 [KVJ] "Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass ", so Matthew has Jesus riding both animals, but Mark and Luke have only the Colt. -- I think the technical term for this is "Oops".Postdiction: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostdictionParallelism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelism_%28rhetoric%29

Where does the Bible state that Mary rode a donkey to Bethlehem?

The Bible does not explicitly state that Mary rode a donkey to Bethlehem. The mention of a donkey in relation to Mary's journey to Bethlehem comes from Christian tradition and popular belief rather than direct biblical text. The Gospel of Luke simply states that Mary and Joseph traveled to Bethlehem, but the mode of transportation is not specified.

Jawbone provider in The Bible?

You may be talking about Samson who killed 1000 Philistines with the jawbone of an ass, and when he got thirsty after his efforts, God gave him water from a hollow in the jawbone. You can read about it in the book of Judges Ch.15 & vs,15 to 19. So the answer to your question is; God was the jawbone provider. Sometimes the Bible appears "inflammatory or offensive" when some parts are read alone. I cannot improve on this answer - I have only recounted a Bible story. Jesus himself said: "Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword." (Matthew 10:34)
