THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Mark xiv, 32-42. Memory Verees, 34-36—Golden Text, Matt, xxvi, 41—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. Wholly forgetful of Himself and His approaching sufferings, in a way that we cannot understand. He comforted that little hand with the incomparable words of John xiv, xv, xvi and prayed the prayer of John xvii, such a prayer as was never prayed on earth before or since. Then they sang a hymn and went out into the mount of Olives (verse 20). He went forth over the brook Cedron, because IIis son Israel bad turned against Him and would not have Him (Ex. iv, 22: Ps. Ixxxi, 11). We cannot but think of His father David going forth over the same brook because his son rebelled against him (II Sam. xv, 23), but as truly as David returned and reigned when the rebellion was over, so shall the Son of David return and reign when Israel’s rebellion is over. Having entered a garden in Gethsemane (John xviii. 1). He said to His disciples, “Sit ye here while I shall pray,” and. leaving eight of them. He took Peter and James and John and went a little farther and began to be sorrowful and very, heavy (verse 33; Matt. xxvi. 37). Putting the three records together as well as we can. it seems to have been like this: He was withdrawn from the three favored disciples about a stone’s cast, saying to them, “My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death. Tarry ye here and watch with me.” Then He went forward a little and kneeled down and fell on His face on the ground and prayed, saying. “O my Father, if it be possible let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not my will but Thine be done.” And there appeared an angel unto Him from heaven, strengthening Him. And. being in an agony. He prayed more earnestly, and His sweat was as it were great drops, of blood falling down to the ground. (Matt xxvi, 37-39; Mark xiv, 33-3G; Luke xxii. 41-44.) Then He came to the three and found them asleep and saith unto Peter: “Simon, sleepest thou? Couldest thou not watch with me one hour? Watch ye and pray lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” He went away the second time and prayed the same words, and returned and found them asleep again, and they did not know what to answer Him. He went away and prayed the third time, saying the same words. Then He came the third time to the three and said, “Sleep on now, and take your rest, it is enough, the hour is come: behold, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.” Then He returned to the eight and found them also sleeping for sorrow, and said: “Why sleep ye? Rise and pray lest ye enter into temptation.” This attempt at a conservative story of that awful night in the garden may not be quite correct in every detail, but it is helpful even to try to do it. Do it for yourself, and you wijll be blessed in doing it. It is ctenr that He prayed three times, that He found them three times sleeping, that He sweat, as it were, drops of blood, that an angel strengthened Him, that after His agony lie was able to rise up and go to meet His enemies. What shall we say of the favored three who were also with Him at the raising of the ruler’s daughter and on the mount of transfiguration and two of. them honored to bring to Him the ass’ colt and to prepare the Passover? What about their sleeping at His transfiguration (Luke ix. 32). as well as in the garden, and the fact that neither glory nor suffering can keep sucli mortals as we are awake? What about the boasting of Peter and then his not being able to watch one hour? Oh. the loneliness of it all on His side! “No man knoweth the Son save the Father.” Ho^v can He continue to love such as we ape and ever hope to make anything out of us? May His patience with us make us more patient with each other.: As to His own experience in the garden we may be quite certain that He was not shrinking from death on the cross, nor was He asking to be delivered from that. We know that the devil tried to kill Him ns si babe in Bethlehem and by His own townsmen at Nazareth and possibly in the storm on the lake, but he could not, for the time had not come. My own conviction concerning His agony and bloody sweat in Getflsemane is that it was another attempt of the devil to kill Him before the time and thus prevent His great sacrifice for sin on Calvary. The key to it is found in Heb. v. 7. “He offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto Him that was able to save Him from death and was heard.” It is the record of His third weeping. He prayed to be saved from death, and He was heard and therefore saved from death, the death in the garden which seemed imminent. An angel came to Him and strengthened Him that He might go on to the cross and finish the great atonement for sin which He came to make. Vet He was willing to leave His work unfinished and die in the garden if His Father should so will it.
