Mark 14:26 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:26

And when they had sung an hymn
The Hallell, used at the passover: they went out into the Mount of Olives;
Christ, and eleven of his disciples; for Judas now separated from them, and went to the chief priests to acquaint them how things were, where Jesus was going, and where they might apprehend him; (See Gill on Matthew 26:30).

Mark 14:26 In-Context

24 And he said to them, This is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed [out] for many.
25 Truly I say to you, for now I shall not drink of this fruit of the vine, [till] into that day when I shall drink it new in the realm of God.
26 And when the hymn was said, they went out into the hill of Olives.
27 And Jesus said to them, All ye shall be caused to stumble in me in this night [And Jesus saith to them, All ye shall be offended in me in this night]; for it is written, I shall smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered.
28 But after that I shall rise again, I shall go before you into Galilee.
