Context of Mark 11:12
10Great will be the kingdom of King David, our ancestor! We praise God above!’ 11Jesus went into Jerusalem and went to the temple. He looked at everything there. It was late in the day, so he then went out of the city to Bethany. The 12 apostles went with him. On the next day, they left Bethany. Jesus was hungry. 13He saw a fig tree which was a long way away. There were leaves on it. So he went to see if it had fruit on it. When he reached it, he found nothing except leaves. That was because it was not the right season for it to have fruit. 14So Jesus said to the tree, ‘Nobody will ever eat your fruit again.’ And his disciples heard what he said.

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 11-26Verses 11-26 See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 21:18-22. Mark 11:11 Into the temple - Not into the edifice properly called “the temple,” but into the “courts” which surrounded the principal edifice. Our Saviour, not being of the tribe of Levi, was not permitted to enter into the holy or most holy place; and when, therefore, it is said that he went into the “temple,” it is always to be understood of the “courts” surrounding the temple.

In John's Gospel, the cleansing of the temple occurs early in the ministry of Jesus (John 2:13–22).
