a Biblical reference
The homily is the part of the Mass that all the other religions call "the sermon". It's written by the priest who's saying Mass. So it's not from the Bible at all. I mean, the bit about spreading cloaks is probably paraphrased from the Gospel for that day, but the priest's interpretation of it as "red-carpet treatment" is just his way of explaining it for the congregation.
