12 And G2532 the first G4413 day G2250 of unleavened bread, G106 when G3753 they killed G2380 the passover, G3957 his G846 disciples G3101 said G3004 unto him, G846 Where G4226 wilt thou G2309 that we go G565 and prepare G2090 that G2443 thou mayest eat G5315 the passover? G3957
13 And G2532 he sendeth forth G649 two G1417 of his G846 disciples, G3101 and G2532 saith G3004 unto them, G846 Go ye G5217 into G1519 the city, G4172 and G2532 there shall meet G528 you G5213 a man G444 bearing G941 a pitcher G2765 of water: G5204 follow G190 him. G846
14 And G2532 wheresoever G3699 G1437 he shall go in, G1525 say ye G2036 to the goodman of the house, G3617 G3754 The Master G1320 saith, G3004 Where G4226 is G2076 the guestchamber, G2646 where G3699 I shall eat G5315 the passover G3957 with G3326 my G3450 disciples? G3101

Commentary on Mark 14 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 14
In this chapter begins the account which this evangelist gives of the death and sufferings of our Lord Jesus, which we are all concerned to be acquainted, not only with the history of, but with the mystery of. Here is,
Most of which passages we had before, Mt. 26.
Mar 14:1-11
We have here instances,
Now,
Now see,
Mar 14:12-31
In these verses we have,
Now, in answer to their enquiry, Christ saith that,
But Christ encourages them with a promise that they shall rally again, shall return both to their duty and to their comfort (v. 28); "After I am risen, I will gather you in from all the places wither you are scattered, Eze. 34:12. I will go before you into Galilee, will see our friends, and enjoy one another there.'
Mar 14:32-42
Christ is here entering upon his sufferings, and begins with those which were the sorest of all his sufferings, those in his soul. Here we have him in his agony; this melancholy story we had in Matthew; this agony in soul was the wormwood and the gall in the affliction and misery; and thereby it appeared that no sorrow was forced upon him, but that it was what he freely admitted.
Now the consideration of Christ's sufferings in his soul, and his sorrows for us, should be of use to us,
As those whom Christ loves he rebukes when they do amiss, so those whom he rebukes he counsels and comforts.
Mar 14:43-52
We have here the seizing of our Lord Jesus by the officers of the chief priests. This was what his enemies had long aimed at, they had often sent to take him; but he had escaped out of their hands, because his hour was not come, nor could they now have taken him, had he not freely surrendered himself. He began first to suffer in his soul, but afterward suffered in his body, that he might satisfy for sin, which begins in the heart, but afterwards makes the members of the body instruments of unrighteousness.
Mar 14:53-65
We have here Christ's arraignment, trial, conviction, and condemnation, in the ecclesiastical court, before the great sanhedrim, of which the high priest was president, or judge of the court; the same Caiaphas that had lately adjudged it expedient he should be put to death, guilty or not guilty (Jn. 11:50), and who therefore might justly be excepted against as partial.
Mar 14:66-72
We have here the story of Peter's denying Christ.
