Jesus went out
The phrase "Jesus went out" signifies a deliberate action taken by Jesus. The Greek word used here is "ἐξῆλθεν" (exēlthen), which implies a purposeful departure. This action is not random but part of a divine plan. Jesus, fully aware of the events that are about to unfold, steps forward with courage and obedience to the Father's will. This moment reflects His commitment to His mission and His role as the Good Shepherd who leads by example.

as usual
The phrase "as usual" indicates a pattern or habit in Jesus' life. The Greek word "κατὰ τὸ ἔθος" (kata to ethos) suggests a customary practice. This was not an isolated event but a regular occurrence, highlighting the importance of prayer and solitude in Jesus' ministry. It serves as a model for believers, emphasizing the necessity of consistent communion with God, especially in times of impending trials.

to the Mount of Olives
The "Mount of Olives" holds significant historical and prophetic importance. Located east of Jerusalem, it was a place Jesus frequented for prayer and teaching. The Mount of Olives is also associated with eschatological events, as prophesied in Zechariah 14:4. This location underscores the gravity of the moment, as Jesus prepares for His impending suffering and crucifixion. It is a place of both solace and prophecy, where Jesus often retreated to seek the Father's presence.

and the disciples followed Him
The phrase "and the disciples followed Him" highlights the relationship between Jesus and His disciples. The Greek word "ἠκολούθησαν" (ēkolouthēsan) means to accompany or follow closely. This act of following signifies obedience and loyalty, even though the disciples do not fully comprehend the magnitude of what is about to happen. It serves as a reminder of the call to discipleship, which involves following Jesus through both triumph and trial, trusting in His leadership and guidance.

(39) And went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives.--The words agree with the previous statement in Luke 21:37, and with John 18:2. Here, as in the parallel passage of Matthew 26:30 (where see Note), we have to insert the discourses of John 14-17.

Verses 39-46. - The agony in the garden. This eventful scene is recounted in detail by all the three synoptists. St. Matthew's account is the most complete. St. Mark adds one saying of the Lord's containing a deep theological truth, "Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee." These remarkable words, occurring as they do in the midst of the most solemn scene of prayer in the Redeemer's earth-life, tell of the vast possibilities of prayer. What may not be accomplished by earnest supplication to the throne of grace? St. Luke's account is the shortest, but it contains the story of the angelic mission of help, and the additional detail of the "bloody sweat." St. John alone of the four omits the scene; but, as in other most important recitals where he refrains from repeating the story of things thoroughly known in his Master's Church at the period when he committed his Gospel to writing, he takes care, however, often to record some hitherto unrecorded piece of the Lord's teaching, which is calculated to throw new light upon the momentous twice and thrice told incident, the story of which he does not deem it necessary to repeat. So in ch. 2. he throws a flood of light upon Christian baptism. Ch. 6. is a Divine commentary on the Holy Eucharist. While in Luke 12:23-28 he gives us, in his Master's words, a new insight into that awful sorrow which was the source of the agony in Gethsemane. Canon Westcott suggests that the succession of the main events recorded by the four evangelists was as follows: - Approximate time: 1 a.m....

The agony.

The betrayal.

The conveyance to the high priest's house, probably adjoining "the Booths of Hanna." 2 a.m.... . . .
