Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Mark 14:17-26

(17) And in the evening he cometh with the twelve. (18) And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me. (19) And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I? (20) And he answered, and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish. (21) The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed? good... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Mark 14:22-31

22-31 The Lord's supper is food for the soul, therefore a very little of that which is for the body, as much as will serve for a sign, is enough. It was instituted by the example and the practice of our Master, to remain in force till his second coming. It was instituted with blessing and giving of thanks, to be a memorial of Christ's death. Frequent mention is made of his precious blood, as the price of our redemption. How comfortable is this to poor repenting sinners, that the blood of Christ... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Mark 14:1-99

Mark 14 AS WE OPEN this chapter, we come back to historical details, and reach the closing moments of our Lord’s life. Verses Mark 14.1-14.11 provide us with a very striking introduction to the last scenes. In verses Mar_14:1 and 2, crafty hatred rises to its climax. In verses Mar_14:10 and 11, the supreme exhibition of heartless treachery is briefly recorded. The verses between tell a story of devoted love on the part of an insignificant woman its beauty enhanced by the story standing... read more

The institution of the Lord's Supper: v. 22. And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat; this is My body. v. 23.

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Mark 14:20-26

Mark THE NEW PASSOVER Mar_14:12 - Mar_14:26 . This passage falls into three sections-the secret preparation for the Passover Mar_14:12 - Mar_14:17, the sad announcement of the betrayer Mar_14:18 - Mar_14:21, and the institution of the Lord’s Supper Mar_14:22 - Mar_14:26. It may be interesting to notice that in the two former of these Mark’s account approximates to Luke’s, while in the third he is nearer Matthew’s. A comparison of the three accounts, noting the slight, but often significant,... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Mark 14:17-31

the Last Supper Mark 14:17-31 The two disciples made their preparations, returned to Bethany, and later the whole company came in together. The simple meal, consisting of the Passover lamb, unleavened cakes, bitter herbs, and wine, proceeded in the usual way, interspersed with the singing of the Hallel, Psalms 113:1-9 ; Psalms 114:1-8 ; Psalms 115:1-18 ; Psalms 116:1-19 ; Psalms 117:1-2 ; Psalms 118:1-29 . How well it is when we do not need the accusation, “Thou art the man,” because we... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Mark 14:1-72

Mary, conscious of the sorrow of death which was in her Lord's soul, poured out the rarest gift she possessed, and so anointed Him beforehand for His burial. Her name is forever redolent of pure devotion. Two sets of arrangements are here chronicled, those of Judas an3 Jesus, yet both converging to the same end under the sovereign will and power of Jehovah. Jesus gathered round Him those who were, according to His own teaching, most nearly related to Him (see 3:34,35), and so grafted the new... read more

THE HOLY COMMUNION‘And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is My body. And He took the cup, and when He had given thanks, He gave it to them: and they all drank of it. And He said unto them, This is My blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.’ Mark 14:22-Jeremiah : A few words on our Holy Communion, before we pass to the reception of it, will not be unfitting. Not that we may enter into controversy—God forbid!... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Mark 14:1-52

From Betrayal To Arrest (14:1-52). The section now splits up into subsections, the first of which is from Mark 14:1-52. This subsection covers the period from the stated final intent of the Chief Priests and Scribes to put Him to death (Mark 14:1-2), to His arrest in the garden of Gethsemane. It divides up as follows: a The Chief Priests and Scribes plot to arrest Him, a woman anoints Him with oil out of pure love, while Judas sells Him for money (Mark 14:1-11). b Jesus, with His... read more
