Mark 11:4

4 et abeuntes invenerunt pullum ligatum ante ianuam foris in bivio et solvunt eum

Mark 11:4 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 11:4

And they went their way
The two disciples went to the village, where Christ sent them, without objecting any difficulties that might present, in the execution of these orders:

and found the colt tied by the door without;
in the street, fastened to the door of the owner's house, at the town's end:

in a place where two ways met;
to go into and out of the village; at the corner house, where two ways met; so that the place was very public, and such an affair could not be transacted, without being seen:

and they loose him;
as soon as ever they came to the place, they immediately began to untie the colt, and were going away with him.

Mark 11:4 In-Context

2 et ait illis ite in castellum quod est contra vos et statim introeuntes illuc invenietis pullum ligatum super quem nemo adhuc hominum sedit solvite illum et adducite
3 et si quis vobis dixerit quid facitis dicite quia Domino necessarius est et continuo illum dimittet huc
4 et abeuntes invenerunt pullum ligatum ante ianuam foris in bivio et solvunt eum
5 et quidam de illic stantibus dicebant illis quid facitis solventes pullum
6 qui dixerunt eis sicut praeceperat illis Iesus et dimiserunt eis
