mar 7:17And when he was entered into the house,.... Very probably at Capernaum, and it may be the house of Simon and Andrew, where he used to be when there:
from the people; being separated from them, having dismissed and left them, when he and his disciples were by themselves alone:
his disciples asked him concerning the parable; that saying of his to the people, which was somewhat dark and intricate to them; that nothing without a man going into him defiled him, but what comes out of him: this was asked by Peter, in the name of the rest; See Gill on Mat 15:15.

(16) If any man have ears to hear.—It was with this formula that our Lord had closed some at least of His parables (Mar_4:9, Mat_13:10). And it was probably this that led to the form which the inquiry of the disciples took when they came to ask their Master “concerning the parable.” The whole verse is, however, omitted in many of the best MSS., and may have been originally a marginal note written by some early transcriber to call attention to the truth stated in the text.
