Mark 14:32 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:32

And they came to a place which is named Gethsemane
At the foot of the Mount of Olives, where the olives, which grew in great plenty on the mount, were pressed: and where our Lord began to be bruised, for our sins: and be saith to his disciples:
to eight of them: sit ye here while I shall pray;
at some distance from hence; (See Gill on Matthew 26:36).

Mark 14:32 In-Context

30 Jesus said to Peter, "I can guarantee this truth: Tonight, before a rooster crows twice, you will say three times that you don't know me."

31 But Peter said very strongly, "Even if I have to die with you, I will never say that I don't know you." All the other disciples said the same thing.

32 Then they came to a place called Gethsemane. He said to his disciples, "Stay here while I pray."

33 He took Peter, James, and John with him and began to feel distressed and anguished.

34 He said to them, "My anguish is so great that I feel as if I'm dying. Wait here, and stay awake."
