The crucial phrase is "And it came to pass" - i.e. at some time.
Jesus took them out to Bethany, then (it came to pass) took them back to the Mount of Olives - He was having a last look around the place before going to Heaven. Perhaps he wanted to check on the fig tree that he had cursed on the road to Bethphage and Bethany to see if there were any change in it?
“We must reassert that the essence of Christianity is the love of obedience to God’s Laws and that how that complete obedience is used or implemented does not concern us.”
