Commentaries:
Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
About a stone's throw (wsei liqou bolhn). Accusative of extent of space. Luke does not tell of leaving eight disciples by the entrance to Gethsemane nor about taking Peter, James, and John further in with him.
Kneeled down (qeiv ta gonata). Second aorist active participle from tiqhmi. Mark 14:35 says "fell on the ground" and Matthew 26:39 "fell on his face." All could be true at different moments.
Prayed (proshuxeto). Imperfect middle, was praying, kept on praying.
