Mark 14:41 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:41

And he cometh the third time
After he had prayed a third time, to the same purport as before:

and saith unto them, sleep on now, and take your rest;
which words are spoken ironically:

it is enough;
or "the end is come"; as the Syriac and Arabic versions render it, of watching and praying:

the hour is come, behold the son of man is betrayed into the hands
of sinners;
both Jews and Gentiles, by one of his own disciples; (See Gill on Matthew 26:45).

39 Again Jesus went away and prayed the same thing.
40 Then he went back to his followers, and again he found them asleep, because their eyes were very heavy. And they did not know what to say to him.
41 After Jesus prayed a third time, he went back to his followers and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? That's enough. The time has come for the Son of Man to be handed over to sinful people.
42 Get up, we must go. Look, here comes the man who has turned against me."
43 At once, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve apostles, came up. With him were many people carrying swords and clubs who had been sent from the leading priests, the teachers of the law, and the older Jewish leaders.
