Mark 11:12 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 11:12

And on the morrow
The next day early in the morning,

when they were come from Bethany;
Christ, and his twelve disciples. The Syriac and Persic versions read, "when he came out of Bethany"; though not alone, but with the twelve disciples, who went with him there, and returned with him, as appears from ( Mark 11:14 ) , as he and they came out of that place early in the morning, having ate nothing, before they came from thence,

he was hungry; (See Gill on Matthew 21:18).
