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).

Mark 14:41 In-Context

39 Then Jesus left them again and prayed the same prayer as before.

40 When he returned to them again, he found them sleeping, for they couldn’t keep their eyes open. And they didn’t know what to say.

41 When he returned to them the third time, he said, “Go ahead and sleep. Have your rest. But no—the time has come. The Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42 Up, let’s be going. Look, my betrayer is here!”

43 And immediately, even as Jesus said this, Judas, one of the twelve disciples, arrived with a crowd of men armed with swords and clubs. They had been sent by the leading priests, the teachers of religious law, and the elders.
