Mark 14:39 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:39

And again he went away
To the same place, or at much such a distance from them, as before:

and prayed and spake the same words;
or word, that is, the same matter; for (logov) , here, answers to (rbd) , which signifies a thing, or matter, as well as word: Christ prayed to the same effect, for matter and substance the same as before, though not in the same express words, as is clear from ( Matthew 26:39 Matthew 26:42 ) .

Mark 14:39 In-Context

37 And he came, and found them sleeping. And he said to Peter [And he saith to Peter], Simon, sleepest thou? mightest thou not wake with me one hour?

38 Wake ye, and pray ye, that ye enter not into temptation; for the spirit is ready, but the flesh is frail [forsooth the spirit is ready, but the flesh is sick].

39 And again he went, and prayed, and said the same word;

40 and he turned again, and again found them sleeping; for their eyes were heavied. And they knew not [And they wist not], what they should answer to him.

41 And he came the third time, and said to them [and saith to them], Sleep ye now, and rest ye; it sufficeth. The hour is come; lo! man's Son shall be betrayed into the hands of sinful men [lo! man's son shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners].
