John Gills Exposition of the Bible 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... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible 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 . read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 11:13

And seeing a fig tree afar off ,.... By the wayside, at some distance from him: having leaves ; very large and spreading, which made a great show, as if there might be fruit on it: he came ; unto it; either he went out of his way to it, or having seen it before him a good way off, at length came up to it if haply he might find any thing thereon ; that is, any fruit; for he saw at a distance, there were leaves upon it; and which was the more remarkable, since it was the time of... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 11:14

And Jesus answered and said unto it ,.... The fig tree; a Jewish way of speaking, often used when nothing before is said; the Syriac, Arabic, and Persic versions, leave out the word "answered", as they do also the word "Jesus"; and which is likewise omitted by the Vulgate Latin, though the other is retained: no man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever ; which is all one, as if he had said, as the other evangelist does, let no fruit grow on thee; for where no fruit is, none can be had, or... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 11:15

And they came to Jerusalem ,.... The Ethiopic version reads, "he came"; that is, Christ; but not alone, for his disciples were with him: Beza says, that, one exemplar he had met with, adds "again", and so one of Stephens's copies; for they had been there the day before: and Jesus went into the temple : the Syriac and Persic versions add, "of God"; into the court of the Gentiles, as he did the preceding day: and began to cast out them that bought and sold in the temple, and overthrew... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 11:16

And would not suffer that any man ,.... He was more strict and severe than the day before; and gave orders, that they should be so far from being allowed to sit and trade in that sacred place, that no man should carry any vessel through the temple ; should make a, thoroughfare of it, by carrying through to any other place, any vessel that was for common use, or any sort of burden whatever: and this they could not well find fault with, nor complain of, since it was agreeable to one of... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 11:17

And he taught, saying unto them, is it not written ,.... In Isaiah 56:7 . My house shall be called of all nations, the house of prayer ? For not only the Jews went up to the temple to pray, see Luke 18:10 , but the Gentiles also, who became of the Jewish religion, and had a court built for that purpose; and so the whole temple, from hence, was called an house of prayer: and the meaning is, not only that it should be called so by the Gentiles, but that it should be so to them, and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 11:18

And the Scribes and chief priests heard it ,.... The reproof he gave to the money changers, and buyers, and sellers in the temple; and his strict prohibition that none should carry any vessels through it; and the argument he used from the prophecy of Isaiah, and the sharp rebuke he gave for the profanation of the holy place: and sought how they might destroy him : they took counsel together to take away his life, for they hated reformation: for they feared him ; lest he should go on... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 11:19

And when even was come, he went out of the city. Of Jerusalem, as he did the evening before, and for the same reasons: probably he went to Bethany, where he had lodged the last night, with Lazarus, Martha, and Mary; or to the Mount of Olives, where he sometimes spent the night in prayer: the Syriac version renders it, "they went out"; for Christ took his disciples with him, as is evident from the following verse. read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 11:20

And in the morning, as they passed by ,.... The fig tree; when they returned the next morning from Bethany, or the Mount of Olives, or the place, wherever it was, they had been that night: they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots ; they did not see it immediately wither as it did, nor could they see it, as they went from Jerusalem to this place, because it was then in the evening; but in the morning, as they came along, they observed it; not only that the tender branches and boughs... read more
