Mark 14:16 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:16

And his disciples went forth
The two disciples, as the Arabic version has it, Peter and John, set out from Bethany to Jerusalem directly:

and came into the city;
the city of Jerusalem:

and found as he had said unto them;
a man bearing a pitcher of water, whom they followed to the house he went into, and addressed the master of the house, as Jesus had bid them; when he showed them an upper room, very commodious and fit for the purpose, as Christ had said; and which is a considerable proof of the prescience of Christ:

and they made ready the passover;
they bought a lamb; they had it killed in the temple, according to rule; and they brought it to the house, where they were to sup, and got it roasted; and provided unleavened bread, and wine, and bitter herbs, and every thing that was proper for the feast; (See Gill on Matthew 26:19).

Mark 14:16 In-Context

14 Wherever he enters, tell the owner of the house, 'The Teacher says, "Where is the guest room for Me to eat the Passover with My disciples?" '

15 He will show you a large room upstairs, furnished and ready. Make the preparations for us there."

16 So the disciples went out, entered the city, and found it just as He had told them, and they prepared the Passover.

17 When evening came, He arrived with the Twelve.

18 While they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, "I assure you: One of you will betray Me-one who is eating with Me!"
