Mark 14:39 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:39

And again he went away
To the same place, or at much such a distance from them, as before:

and prayed and spake the same words;
or word, that is, the same matter; for (logov) , here, answers to (rbd) , which signifies a thing, or matter, as well as word: Christ prayed to the same effect, for matter and substance the same as before, though not in the same express words, as is clear from ( Matthew 26:39 Matthew 26:42 ) .

Mark 14:39 In-Context

37 And he comes and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter, Simon, dost thou sleep? Hast thou not been able to watch one hour?

38 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed [is] willing, but the flesh weak.

39 And going away, he prayed again, saying the same thing.

40 And returning, he found them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy; and they knew not what they should answer him.

41 And he comes the third time and says to them, Sleep on now, and take your rest. It is enough; the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is delivered up into the hands of sinners.
