Mark 14:17 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:17

And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
] In the afternoon, as it is very reasonable to suppose, Christ set out from Bethany with the rest of the twelve, with the other nine, and came to Jerusalem; where they were joined by Judas, who had covenanted with the chief priests to betray him, and by Peter and John, who had been sent before to prepare the passover; and when it was night, when the second evening had took place, he went with all twelve of them to the house, where the provision to eat the passover together was made for them; (See Gill on Matthew 26:20).

17 When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve.

18 And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.”

19 They began to be grieved and to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I?”
