Mark 11:6 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 11:6

And they said unto them
The very express words,

even as Jesus had commanded:
not that these were the words they said, but "the Lord hath need of him": upon which they said no more, were satisfied and contented, that they should untie the colt, and take it with them:

and they let them go;
and the colt with them, very freely; (See Gill on Matthew 21:6).

Mark 11:6 In-Context

4 The followers went into the town, found a colt tied in the street near the door of a house, and untied it.
5 Some people were standing there and asked, "What are you doing? Why are you untying that colt?"
6 The followers answered the way Jesus told them to answer, and the people let them take the colt.
7 They brought the colt to Jesus and put their coats on it, and Jesus sat on it.
8 Many people spread their coats on the road. Others cut branches in the fields and spread them on the road.
