Mark 11:5

5 et quidam de illic stantibus dicebant illis quid facitis solventes pullum

Mark 11:5 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 11:5

And certain of them that stood there
The Ethiopic version reads, who walked there; who were either standing hard by, or walking about the place, being inhabitants of it; and either the owners of the colt, or their servants, or both:

said unto them, what do ye loosing the colt?
What do ye mean by it? do you intend to take the colt away? what business have you with it? what right have you to do so? and what is your end in it?

Mark 11:5 In-Context

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

7 et duxerunt pullum ad Iesum et inponunt illi vestimenta sua et sedit super eo
