Mark 14:19

19 And they began to be sorrowful and to say unto him one by one, shall it be I? and another said, shall it be 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 in the evening he went with the twelve.

18 And when they sat at the table and ate, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you who eats with me shall betray me.

19 And they began to be sorrowful and to say unto him one by one, shall it be I? and another said, shall it be I?

20 And he, answering, said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dips with me in the dish.

21 The Son of man indeed goes, as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.
