         DefinitionShort: to sit down upon something

         Glosses: ['to sit upon', 'to mount', 'to get on']

         Comments: In {S:04002100700028} the pronominal form αὐτῶν is ambiguous in reference, for it may refer either to the garments or to the donkey and colt. The closest noun reference is τὰ ἱμάτια ‘the garments,’ but in view of Matthew’s quotation and evident interpretation of the reference to {S:03800900900000}, both the donkey and the colt may be the substantive referents, though being seated upon two animals at the same time poses real problems of understanding.
