Jesus left the city and went, as he usually did, to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples went with him.

Jesus left them and went out of the city to Bethany, where he spent the night.

The next day, as they were coming back from Bethany, Jesus was hungry.

Six days before the Passover, Jesus went to Bethany, the home of Lazarus, the man he had raised from death.

When he came near Jerusalem, at the place where the road went down the Mount of Olives, the large crowd of his disciples began to thank God and praise him in loud voices for all the great things that they had seen:

At that time he will stand on the Mount of Olives, to the east of Jerusalem. Then the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west by a large valley. Half of the mountain will move northward, and half of it southward.

Then they sang a hymn and went out to the Mount of Olives.

Then the apostles went back to Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives, which is about half a mile away from the city.
