Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Mark 14:32-42

Jesus’ sufferings in Gethsemane 14:32-42 (cf. Matthew 26:36-46; Luke 22:40-46)This incident contrasts Jesus’ humility and dependence on the Father with Peter’s self-confidence (Mark 14:27-31). It is a remarkable revelation of the humanity of Jesus."So far from sailing serenely through his trials like some superior being unconcerned with this world, he is almost dead with distress." [Note: Moule, p. 117.] This is Mark’s third mention of Jesus praying (cf. Mark 1:35; Mark 6:46). In each instance... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Mark 14:41-42

Mark alone recorded that Jesus made three separate forays into the depths of the garden to pray."The Temptation of the Garden divides itself, like that of the Wilderness, into three acts, following close one on another." [Note: G. F. Maclear, "The Gospel According to St. Mark," in Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges, p. 163.] Jesus’ perseverance in prayer demonstrated the extent of His dependence on the Father. Jesus’ question convicted the disciples again. He probably intended His words... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Mark 14:1-72

Foreign Missions Mark 14:4 The incident from which our text is taken is distinguished above all others by the fact that Jesus mentions it as one that shall be held in world-wide and undying remembrance (v. 9). What is there said has been realized wherever missions have been established. But, unfortunately, the obvious moral of the story has not prevented the application to foreign missions of a question, oft repeated and loud sounding, which amounts almost in so many words to the question of... read more
