Regarding the donkey in Zechariah 9:9, which presumably refers back to the donkey referred to in Genesis 49:11, Meredith Kline wrote that a "special designation for the donkey, shared by these two passages alone in the Old Testament, has been found to refer to a particular kind of animal that was used in the death-ritual by which ancient covenants were ratified. Accordingly, in the fulfillment... of Zechariah 9 [in Matthew 21:4-5], the donkey on which the Lord rode presaged... the new covenant."
