And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.

The opening verse shows that this remarkable incident occurred at the same time with the foregoing.

And Jesus entered. Since the word "Jesus" is not in the original, it should not have been inserted here. The rendering should be, 'And He entered,' showing that the occasion is the same as before.

And passed through, [ dieercheto (G1330)] - rather, 'was passing through' "Jericho" - as to which, see the notes at Luke 10:30.
