Matthew 26:46 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 26:46

44 So He left them, went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.

45 Then He came to His disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour¹ is at hand, and the Son of Man is being ^abetrayed into the hands of sinners.

46 Rise, let us be going. See, My betrayer is at hand.”

Betrayal and Arrest in Gethsemane

47 And ^awhile He was still speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude with swords and clubs, came from the chief priests and elders of the people.

48 Now His betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “Whomever I kiss, He is the One; seize Him.”

49 Immediately he went up to Jesus and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” ^aand kissed Him.

50 But Jesus said to him, ^a“Friend, why have you come?” Then they came and laid hands on Jesus and took Him.

51 And suddenly, ^aone of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

52 But Jesus said to him, “Put your sword in its place, ^afor all who take the sword will¹ perish by the sword.
