Verse 45
And as soon as he was come ,.... To the place where Jesus was:
he goeth straightway to him ; alone; as if he had nothing to do with the company behind, and as if he was his friend, and concerned for his safety:
and saith, Master, Master ; expressing great affection for him, and respect to him, by repeating this word. The Ethiopic version has it but once, and so two exemplars of Beza's; and the Vulgate Latin reads, "hail, Master", as in Matthew 26:49 .
and kissed him ; See Gill on Matthew 26:49 .
