Verse 36

Then cometh, &c. The Structure (p. 1305) shows the correspondence between the Temptation in the Wilderness (Matthew 4:1-11 ) and the Agony in the Garden (Matthew 26:36-46 ). That both were an assault of Satan is shown in Luke 22:53 , John 14:30 ; and by the fact that in each case angelic ministration was given. Compare Matthew 4:11 with Luke 22:43 .

place. Not the usual word, or the same as in Matthew 26:52 , but Greek. chorion = field, or farmstead; used as "place" is in Eng. of a separated spot, in contrast with the town. Compare its ten occurrences (here, 2 John 1:4; 2 John 1:4 :5 .Acts 1:18 , Acts 1:19 , Acts 1:19 ; Acts 4:34 ; Acts 5:3 , Acts 5:8 ; Acts 28:7 ).

Gethsemane. An Aramaic word. See App-94 .

pray. Greek. proseuchomai. App-134 .:2. As in verses: Matthew 26:39 , Matthew 26:41 , Matthew 26:42 , Mat 39:44 . Not the same as in Matthew 26:53 .
