Matthew Chapter 21: (Introduction to the Gospels, Coding Reference)
1And when they drew-near into a Jerusalem, and they came into a Bethphage ╓towards╖ ┌into┐ the mountain of the olives, at-that-time ╓the╖ ┌a┐ Jesus sent-authoritatively two adherents 2saying, ╓You might be proceeded╖ ┌Proceed you┐ into the village, the-one ╓opposite╖ ┌diametrically┐ of you, and you will find a donkey having had been bound and a foal with her, having loosed {them} lead you {them} to me, 3and if- someone -would say to you, Why? say you because the sir has a need of them, moreover ╓immediately╖ ┌straightway┐ he sends-authoritatively them.
4Moreover this ╓whole╖ had become so-that it might be fulfilled the-one having been said through the prophet saying, 5Say you to the daughter, Zion, lo the king of you is coming to you mild and having had mounted onto a donkey and ┌onto┐ a foal, a son of a beast-of-burden.
6Moreover the adherents, having been proceeded and having done according-as the Jesus ╓prescribed╖ ┌ordained┐ to them, 7led the female-donkey and the male-foala, and ╓on-top╖ ┌upon┐ them they placed-upon the outer-garments of them, and on-top them he sat-upon.
8Moreover the largest crowd strewed the outer-garments of themselves within the way, moreover {the ones} other were cutting-offb branches from the trees, and they were strewing {them} within the way.
9The crowds, the-ones leading-before ┌him┐ and the-ones following, were screaming saying, Save-now!c Having been praised to the son of a David, the-one coming in the name of the sir! Save-now!c Within the-ones highest!
10And {upon} him entering into a Jerusalem all the city was shaken saying, Who is this-one?
11Moreover the crowds were saying, This-one is a Jesus, the prophet, the-one from a Nazareth of the Galilee.
12And ╓the╖ ┌a┐ Jesus entered into the temple ╓of the god╖, and he cast-forth all the-ones trading and buying within the temple, and he upset the tables of the small-money-changers, and the chairs of the-ones trading the common-pigeons; 13and he says to them, It has been written, The home of me, a home of prayer, will be called, moreover you ╓made╖ ┌are making┐ it a cavern of plunderers.
14And {the-ones} blind and {the-ones} lame within the temple came-forward to him, and he medically-treated them. 15Moreover the chief-priests and scribes, having observed the-ones wonderful which he did and boysd ┌, the-ones┐ screaming within the temple and saying, Save-nowc with the son of David!, were-vexed; 16and they said to him, Do you hear? Which these are saying?
Moreover Jesus says to them, Certainly! Not-even-ever did you discern that out-of a mouth of {the-ones} unintelligent and {the-ones} suckling you furnishede a laudation.
17And leaving them he went-forth outside the city into a Bethany, and he was lodged there. 18Moreover ╓{the-one} early-in-the-day╖ ┌at-morn┐ he, leading back into the city, hungered; 19and he, having observed one fig-tree upon the way he came onto it, and he found nothing within it except foliage alone, and he says to it, No-longer might a fruit become out-of you into the eon. And the fig-tree was withered forthwith.
20And having observed the adherents marveled saying, How forthwith the fig-tree was withered!
21Moreover the Jesus, having replied, said to them, Truly, I say to you if- you -would have a complete-confidence-and-total-trust, and you might not be waveredf, not will you only do the-one of the fig-tree, but also-if you might say to this, the mountain, Be lifted-up you, and be cast you into the sea, it will become; 22and {the-ones} all as-much-as ╥if-╥ you, having-complete-confidence-and-being-totally-entrusting, ╒would╕ ╥-would╥ request-for-yourselves within the prayer, you will receive.
23And ╓with╖ ┌{upon}┐ him having come into the temple with him teaching the chief-priests and the-ones elder of the people came-forward saying, Within which an authority do you do these, and who gave-freely you this, the authority?
24Moreover the Jesus, having replied, said to them, And-I will ask you one word if-whatever you might say to me, and-I will say to you within which an authority I do these. 25The purification, ┌the-one┐ of a John, whence was it: out-of a universe or out-of humanity?
Moreover the-ones were debating ╓beside╖ ┌within┐ themselves saying, If- we -would say out-of a universe he will say to us, Wherefore then did you not have-complete-confidence-and-be-totally-entrusting him, 26moreover if- we -would say out-of humanity, they are terrified of the crowd for all have the John as a prophet. 27And they, having replied to Jesus, said, We do not know.
He was asserting also to them, Nor do I say to you within which an authority I do these.
28Moreover which do you think: a person has two children, and he, having come-forward to the-one first, says, Child, depart you today, work you within the vineyard of me.
29Moreover the-one, having replied, says, I desire not! Moreover afterwards he, having been regretted, went-forth.
30╓And╖ ┌Moreover┐ he, having come-forward to the-one ┬second┬ ╔other-different╗ he likewise says.
Moreover the-one, having replied, says, I, Sir {will}, and he did not go-forth.
31Which of the-ones two did the will of the father?
They say ╓to him╖, The-one first.
The Jesus says to them, Truly, I say to you that the toll-collectors and prostitutes are leading-before you into the dominion of the god, 32for a John came towards you within the way of a righteousness, and you did not have-complete-confidence-and-were-{not}-totally-entrusting him; moreover the toll-collectors and prostitutes had-complete-confidence-and-were-totally-entrusting him; moreover you, having observed, were ╓not╖ ┌not-even┐ regretted afterwards of the-one to have-complete-confidence-and-be-totally-entrusting him.
33Hear you an other analogy: a person, someone was a master-of-the-home, whosoever planted a vineyard, and he placed-around a fence to it, and he dug a wine-vat within it, and he built a tower-of-defense, and he farmed-out it to {the-ones} tilling-the-ground, and he journeyed-afar, 34moreover when the time-of-harvestg of the fruit drew-near, he sent-authoritatively the slaves of him towards the-ones tilling-the-ground to have received the fruit of it, 35and the-ones tilling-the-ground, having taken the slaves: someh indeed they thrashed, someh moreover they killed, someh moreover they stoned.
36Again he sent-authoritatively other slaves, {the-ones} more than the-ones first; and they did to them likewise.
37Moreover afterwards he sent-authoritatively the son of him towards them saying, They will be respecting the son me.
38Moreover the-ones tilling-the-ground, having observed the son, said to themselves, This-one is the heir. Come! We will kill him, and we might ╓gain-possession-of╖ ┌have┐ the property of him, 39and having taken him, they cast-forth {him} outside the vineyard, and they killed {him}.
40Then whenever the sir of the vineyard might come, Which will he do to those, the-ones tilling-the-ground?
41They say to him, {The-ones} badlyi pernicious! He will destroy-utterly them, and he will farm-out the vineyard to {the-ones} other tilling-the-ground whosoever will give-forth him the fruit within the time-of-harvestsg of them.
42The Jesus says to them, Not-even-ever did you discern within the writings: a stone, which the-ones building rejected-as-unworthy, this-one was become the head of a corner, this-one became beside the masterj, and marvelous it is fruit within eyes of us.
43For-this-reason he says to you, That the kingdom of the god will be lifted-up from you, and he will give-freely to a nation doing the fruit of it. 44And the-one, having fallen onto this, the stone, will be crushed-together; moreover onto whom it would fall, it will winnow him.
45And the chief-priests and the Pharisees, having heard the analogies, knew-experientially that he says concerning them; 46and they, seeking to seize him, were terrified of the crowds ╓forasmuch-as╖ ┌whereas┐ they were having him ╓as╖ ┌into┐ a prophet.

aThe gender in Greek for donkey and foal must be determined from the article or pronoun In verse 4 the donkey is female from the pronoun following with as it is feminine; verse 5 implies the foal is male by the description following say it is a son; and verse 7 is clarifies the genders by the articles associated with the nouns, thus the usage of female donkey and male foal.
bThe Greek is κόπτω, koptō, meaning smite, cut off, strike oneself as in mourning; contextually the meaning is to cut-off because of the reference to branches.
cThis is the interpretation
for a Hebrew expression translated as Hosanna in Christian Scripture
Greek and possibly derived from
dThe Greek is παίς, pais, meaning boy, child, young slave, contextually children of both genders is possible and maybe probable; however, I have kept my generic translation boy, since it is more likely only boys would have been within the temple.
eThe Greek is καταρτίζω, katartizō, meaning adjust, furnish, compound, contextually is furnish or to give forth.
fThe Greek is διακρίνω, diakrinō, meaning separate, distinguish, hesitate, waver, contextually to waver or doubt.
gThe Greek is καιρός, kairos, meaning due measure or when time inferred critical time, season, opportune time; thus contextually season or time-of-harvest.
hThe Greek uses the relative pronoun meaning whom, however contextually it is understood better if the word some is used.
iThe Greek is κακῶς, kakōs, the adverb of the adjective κακός, kakos, meaning bad, mean, craven, base. The adverb is normally translated ill however here contextually badly.
jThe Greek is κύριος, kyurios, meaning lord, head, master. The usage here is for an inanimate object as the cornerstone of a building is considered the master.
