Mark 11:11 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 11:11

And Jesus entered into Jerusalem
this public manner, riding upon an ass, with the multitude attending hin, some going before, and others after, crying, "Hosanna" to him:

and into the temple;
which he rode up directly to; the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions, leave out the copulative "and"; his great concern being there; and having dismounted, and dismissed the colt, and sent it by proper persons to the owner of it, he went into the temple, into the court of the Gentiles; where he found and overturned the tables of the money changers, and the seats of them that sold doves, and healed the lame and the blind:

and when he had looked round about upon all things;
that is, in the temple, as the Lord and proprietor of it; and made a thorough visitation of it, and search into it, and corrected what was amiss in it:

and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the
twelve;
having spent great part of the day in reforming abuses in the temple, in healing diseases, and disputing with the chief priests and Scribes: the evening being come, he did not think fit, for some reasons, to stay in the city; but went out to Bethany, which was near two miles off, and lodged there; (See Gill on Matthew 21:17).

Mark 11:11 In-Context

9 And they that went before, and that followed, cried, and said [saying], Hosanna, blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord;
10 blessed be the kingdom of our father David that is to come; Hosanna in highest things. [+blessed is the realm of our father David that cometh; Hosanna in highest.]
11 And he entered into Jerusalem, into the temple; and when he had seen all things about, when it was even [+when the hour was now evening/when now the eventide hour was], he went out into Bethany, with the twelve.
12 And another day, when he went out of Bethany [when he went out from Bethany], he hungered.
13 And when he had seen a fig tree afar having leaves, he came, if happily he should find any thing thereon; and when he came to it, he found nothing, except leaves; for it was not time of figs.
