Verse 38
Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
The apostles here, sleeping, instead of watching and praying, have had their counterpart in all ages of the church. When temptation comes, it is often too late, because the hours of preparation that should have been made were spent in idleness or sleep. Christ, however, explained their failure as "weakness," and, in a sense, made this excuse for them.
