Church Fathers on Matthew 21:13
When Jesus entered with the multitudes, the whole city of Jerusalem was moved, wondering at the crowds, and not knowing the power.

Moreover, when Jesus entered the true Jerusalem, they cried out, wondering at His heavenly virtues, and said, 'Who is this King of glory?' [Ps 24:8]
