Exegesis

The verse opens with the temporal clause hote eiselthen eis oikon apo tou ochlou {ὅτε εἰσῆλθεν εἰς οἶκον ἀπὸ τοῦ ὄχλου | hó-te ei-sēl-then eis oî-kon a-pó toû óch-lou} “when He entered into the house away from the crowd,” in which the aorist verb eiselthen functions as a backgrounding narrative verb marking a completed transition from public to private space. The prepositional phrase apo tou ochlou specifies separation from the previously mentioned audience.

In contextMark 7:17

And when He entered into the house away from the crowd, His disciples were asking Him about the parable.
