Pseudo-Jerome, on Mark 11:1
Mark 11:1 · Douay-Rheims
“And when they were drawing near to Jerusalem and to Bethania at the mount of Olives, he sendeth two of his disciples,”
On this verse:
“The disciples of Christ are called two by two, and sent two by two, since charity implies more than one, as it is written, Woe to him that is alone. (Eccl. 4:10) Two persons lead the Israelites out of Egypt: two bring down the bunch of grapes from the Holy Land, that men in authority might ever join together activity and knowledge, and bring forward two commandments from the Two Tables, and be washed from two fountains, and carry the ark of the Lord on two poles, and know the Lord between the two Cherubim, and sing to Him with both mind and spirit.”
