Bethphage, meaning "house of unripe figs," was situated on the Mount of Olives and is less frequently mentioned in the Bible compared to Bethany. Bethany, meaning "house of affliction" or "house of dates," was the home of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus, whom Jesus raised from the dead (John 11). These villages were significant as they were close to Jerusalem, where Jesus would soon enter triumphantly. The proximity to Jerusalem highlights the fulfillment of Jesus' mission and the prophetic significance of His journey to the city. at the Mount of Olives He sent out two of His disciples Persons / Places / Events 1.

Teaching Points Obedience to Christ's CommandsThe two disciples exemplify obedience by following Jesus' instructions without question. As believers, we are called to trust and obey God's directives, even when the purpose is not immediately clear.

We are called to be active participants in God's work, ready to serve and carry out His mission.(29-38) When he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany.--On the general narrative, see Notes on Matthew 21:1-11; Mark 11:1-11. In details we note (1) that St. Luke unites the "Bethphage" of St. Matthew with the "Bethany" of St. Mark; (2) that, as a stranger to Judaea, he speaks of the "mountain that was called the Mount of Olives. Possibly, indeed, both here and in Luke 21:37, as certainly in Acts 1:12, he uses the Greek equivalent for Olivet (the Latin Olivetum, or "place of Olives") as a proper name. The absence of the article before the Greek for "Olives," and the accentuation of the words in many MSS., seem decisive in favour of this view.Verse 29. - And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany. Bethphage is never mentioned in the Old Testament, but in the Talmud we find it specified in some interesting ceremonial directions. It was evidently an outlying suburb of Jerusalem. Bethphage, which lay between the city and Bethany, was by the rabbis legally counted as part of Jerusalem. Bethany signifies" House of Dates," no doubt so called from its palm trees. Bethphage, "House of Green Figs," from its fig-orchards. The modern Bethany is known as El-Azarieh or Lazarieh, the name attaching to its connection with the history of Lazarus.
