Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Mark 14:17-25

Mark 14:17-25. In the evening he cometh with the twelve See notes on Matthew 26:20-29. This is my blood of the new testament Or, covenant; that is, this I appoint to be a perpetual sign and memorial of my blood, as shed for establishing the new covenant, that all who shall believe in me, may receive all its gracious promises. I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, &c. That is, I shall drink no more before I die: the next wine I drink will not be earthly, but heavenly. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Mark 14:17-21

141. A traitor among them (Matthew 26:20-25; Mark 14:17-21; Luke 22:21-23; John 13:21-35)The apostles were surprised when Jesus announced that one of them would betray him, for they did not suspect treachery among them. Perhaps they thought that one of them might unintentionally betray him through speaking carelessly. But Judas knew what Jesus meant (Matthew 26:20-22; John 13:21-25). When Jesus took a piece of bread, dipped it in the dish and gave it to Judas, he was giving Judas a special... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 14:19

They began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I?How pathetic is the weakness of men! Every one of the Twelve felt some possibility within his own soul that led to the question, Is it I? Every man feels this undertow of evil, and cannot deny the possibility of betraying the Lord, such thoughts always issuing in sorrow, as was the case here. read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 14:20

And he said, It is one of the twelve, he that dippeth with me in the dish.Of all the Twelve, only Judas fulfilled the dual qualifications of being trusted (carrying the bag) and sitting next to Jesus at the table; and, in the light of this, Psalms 41:9 prophesied the exact identity of the traitor. read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 14:21

For the Son of man goeth, even as it is written of him: but woe unto that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had not been born.All theories regarding the possible salvation of Judas are frustrated by the Saviour's pronouncement here. That fate which is worse than never having been born cannot, by any device, be made equivalent to eternal life. Also, there is the necessary deduction from this word of the Master that the fate of the wicked is something... read more
