Mark 14:19

19 They were sad, and said to him one by one, Is it I?

Mark 14:19 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:19

And they began to be sorrowful
And were so, all but Judas, at this saying of Christ's:

and to say unto him, one by one;
even till it came to Judas himself,

is it I?
that shall betray thee;

and another said, is it I?
This clause is wanting in the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, Arabic, Persic, and Ethiopic versions, and in two of Beza's copies; and indeed seems to be redundant, since the disciples are said before to express themselves in this manner, one by one; (See Gill on Matthew 26:22).

Mark 14:19 In-Context

17 And when it was evening he came with the twelve.

18 And while they were seated taking food, Jesus said, Truly I say to you, One of you will be false to me, one who is taking food with me.

19 They were sad, and said to him one by one, Is it I?

20 And he said to them, It is one of the twelve, one who is putting his bread with me into the same plate.

21 The Son of man goes, even as the Writings say of him: but cursed is that man through whom the Son of man is given up! It would have been well for that man if he had never been given birth.
