Matthew Henry Presbyterian @wholebiblehenry

We have here the story of the public entry Christ made into Jerusalem, four or five days before his death. And he came into town thus remarkably, 1. To show that he was not afraid of the power and malice of his enemies in Jerusalem.

John Gill Reformed Baptist @doctorgill

And many spread their garments in the way,.... Instead of carpets to ride on, and in honour to him as a king: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way; in token of joy, as at the feast of tabernacles; See Gill on Mat 21:8.
