VERSE (37) -
Mt 4:18,21; 17:1; 20:20 Mr 5:37

SEV Biblia, Chapter 26:37

Y tomando a Pedro, y a los dos hijos de Zebedeo, comenz a entristecerse y a angustiarse en gran manera.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Matthew 26:37

Verse 37. And he took with him Peter and the two sons of
Zebedee] That is, James and John; the same persons who had beheld his transfiguration on the mount-that they might contemplate this agony in the light of that glory which they had there seen; and so be kept from being stumbled by a view of his present humiliation.

Began to be sorrowful] lupeisqai, from luw, to dissolve- exquisite sorrow, such as dissolves the natural vigour, and threatens to separate soul and body.

And very heavy.] Overwhelmed with anguish-adhmonein. This word is used by the Greeks to denote the most extreme anguish which the soul can feel-excruciating anxiety and torture of spirit.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 37. And he took with him Peter, and the two sons of Zebedee , etc.] James and John, who perhaps were the strongest, and best able to bear the shocking sight, and were his favourite disciples; who were admitted to be with him at other times, when the rest were not; as at the raising of Jairuss daughter, ( Mark 5:37), and moreover, these were at his transfiguration on the mount, ( Matthew 17:1), which was a representation and presage of his glory; and so were very proper persons to be witnesses of his sorrows and agonies, which were the way to it; and three of them were taken by him for this purpose, being a sufficient number to bear testimony, since by the mouth of two or three witnesses everything is established: and began to be sorrowful ; his soul was troubled on the same account six days before, ( John 12:27), but was now sorrowful. He was a man of sorrows all his days, and acquainted with griefs, being reproached and persecuted by men: but now a new scene of sorrows opened; before he was afflicted by men, but now he is bruised, and put to grief by his Father: his sorrows now began, for they did not end here, but on the cross; not that this was but a bare beginning of his sorrows, or that these were but light in comparison of future ones; for they were very heavy, and indeed seem to be the heaviest of all, as appears from his own account of them; his vehement cry to his Father; his bloody sweat and agony; and the assistance he stood in need of from an angel; and the comfort and strength he received from him in his human nature: all which, put together, the like is not to be observed in any part of his sufferings: and to be very heavy ; with the weight of the sins of his people, and the sense of divine wrath, with which he was so pressed and overwhelmed, that his spirits were almost quite gone; he was just ready to swoon away, sink and die; his heart failed him, and became like wax melted in the midst of his bowels, before the wrath of God, which was as a consuming fire: all which shows the truth, though weakness of his human nature, and the greatness of his sufferings in it. The human nature was still in union with the divine person of the Son of God, and was sustained by him, but left to its natural weakness, without sin, that it might suffer to the utmost, and as much as possible for the sins of Gods elect.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 36-46 - He who made
atonement for the sins of mankind, submitted himself in garden of suffering, to the will of God, from which man had revolted in a garden of pleasure. Christ took with him into that part of the garde where he suffered his agony, only those who had witnessed his glory in his transfiguration. Those are best prepared to suffer with Christ, wh have by faith beheld his glory. The words used denote the most entir dejection, amazement, anguish, and horror of mind; the state of on surrounded with sorrows, overwhelmed with miseries, and almos swallowed up with terror and dismay. He now began to be sorrowful, an never ceased to be so till he said, It is finished. He prayed that, i possible, the cup might pass from him. But he also showed his perfec readiness to bear the load of his sufferings; he was willing to submi to all for our redemption and salvation. According to this example of Christ, we must drink of the bitterest cup which God puts into ou hands; though nature struggle, it must submit. It should be more ou care to get troubles sanctified, and our hearts satisfied under them than to get them taken away. It is well for us that our salvation is in the hand of One who neither slumbers nor sleeps. All are tempted, but we should be much afraid of entering into temptation. To be secure from this, we should watch and pray, and continually look unto the Lor to hold us up that we may be safe. Doubtless our Lord had a clear an full view of the sufferings he was to endure, yet he spoke with the greatest calmness till this time. Christ was a Surety, who undertook to be answerable for our sins. Accordingly he was made sin for us, an suffered for our sins, the Just for the unjust; and Scripture ascribe his heaviest sufferings to the hand of God. He had full knowledge of the infinite evil of sin, and of the immense extent of that guilt for which he was to atone; with awful views of the Divine justice an holiness, and the punishment deserved by the sins of men, such as n tongue can express, or mind conceive. At the same time, Christ suffere being tempted; probably horrible thoughts were suggested by Satan tha tended to gloom and every dreadful conclusion: these would be the mor hard to bear from his perfect holiness. And did the load of impute guilt so weigh down the soul of Him of whom it is said, He upholdet all things by the word of his power? into what misery then must thos sink whose sins are left upon their own heads! How will those escap who neglect so great salvation?

Robertson's NT Word Studies

26:37 {He took with him} (paralabwn). Taking along, by his side (para-), as a mark of special
favor and privilege, instead of leaving this inner circle of three (Peter, James, and John) with the other eight. The eight would serve as a sort of outer guard to watch by the gate of the garden for the coming of Judas while the three would be able to share the agony of soul already upon Jesus so as at least to give him some human sympathy which he craved as he sought help from the Father in prayer. These three had been with Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration and now they are with him in this supreme crisis. The grief of Christ was now severe. The word for {sore troubled} (ademonein) is of doubtful etymology. There is an adjective admos equal to apodemos meaning "not at home,"away from home," like the German _unheimisch, unheimlich_. But whatever the etymology, the notion of intense discomfort is plain. The word ademonein occurs in P.Oxy. II, 298,456 of the first century A.D. where it means "excessively concerned." See #Php 2:26 where Paul uses it of Epaphroditus. Moffatt renders it here "agitated." The word occurs sometimes with aporew to be at a loss as to which way to go. The _Braid Scots_ has it "sair putten-aboot." Here Matthew has also "to be sorrowful" (lupeisthai), but Mark (#Mr 14:33) has the startling phrase {greatly amazed and sore troubled} (ekqambeisqai kai ademonein), a "feeling of terrified surprise."
