The remarkable power exercised by certain middle eastern peoples over poisonous serpents is distinctly mentioned in the Bible, and probably alluded to by St. James in 3:7. the species most generally operated upon are the Indian cobra, the African cobra, common to N. Africa and Syria, and the horned viper, which has a similar distribution. The charmers generally extract the poison-fangs before the snakes are subjected to their skill. The snake-charmers employ a flute and a drum during their performances; and carry the snakes in baskets." Murray

"Jews of high rank rode on asses; and in this manner our Lord made His entry into Jerusalem fulfilling prophecy of Zechariah. He came "meek and lowly," but it is a mistake to suppose that the fact of His riding on an ass had aught to do with this meekness, although doubtless meant to show the peaceable nature of His kingdom, as horses were used for war purposes."
