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 And they went forth, and found a colt tied before the gate withoutforth, in the meeting of two ways; and they untied him.

5 And some of them that stood there said to them, What do ye, untying the colt?

6 And they said to them, as Jesus commanded them; and they left it to them [and they let go to them].

7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and they laid on him their clothes, and Jesus sat on him [+and they put on him their clothes, and Jesus sat upon him].

8 And many strewed their clothes in the way, and other men cutted branches off trees [+soothly other men cut bows, or branches, from trees], and strewed in the way.
