Exegesis
The imperative hypagete {Ὑπάγετε | hupá-ge-te} ‘go’ specifies the disciples’ action directed by the prepositional phrase eis tēn kōmēn tēn katenanti hymōn {εἰς τὴν κώμην τὴν κατέναντι ὑμῶν | eis tḕn kṓ-mēn tḕn ka-té-nan-ti hy-môn} ‘into the village opposite you’, where the repeated article marks a particular village.
In context — Mark 11:2
And He says to them, “Go into the village across from you; when you go in, you will at once find a colt tied, which no one among people has yet sat on; untie it and bring it.”
