"the borrowed book" vs " the book borrowed"

As stated in Subject, what is the difference between phrases " the book borrowed" and " the borrowed book"? Thanks a lot.

The meaning is the same. You would probably see "the book borrowed" almost exclusively in situations where more words followed that were related to "borrowed", like this: the book borrowed from the library the book borrowed by my brother the book borrowed yesterday CJ
