[Mark 14]

 

             {Mat 24:45-51 & Luk 21:38.} {Mat 25:1-46 Mountain of Olives, Tues.}

             {Mar 14:1-2 & Mat 26:1-5 & Luk 22:1-2 Mountain of Olives, Bethany, Jerusalem, Tues Evening, Wed. for the Jews.}

             ^14:1 Now after two days, it was the feast of the Passover and the unleavened bread, and the high-priests and the scribes were seeking how they might kill him if they took-hold of him in treachery; ^14:2 but they were saying, Not at the feast, lest there will be an uproar of the people.

 

             {Mar 14:3-9 & Mat 26:6-13.}

             ^14:3 And now being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, reclining at a meal, a woman came holding an alabaster flask of costly full-strength perfume of nard, and she crushed the alabaster flask and poured it down on his head. ^14:4 But some were being indignant with themselves, and saying, ^*For what has this waste of perfume happened? ^14:5 For^* this perfume was able to be sold^* for above three hundred denarii and given to the poor. And they were scolding her.

             ^14:6 But Jesus said, Allow^° her. Why are you^° harassing her? She has worked a good work in me. ^14:7 For^* you^° always have the poor with yourselves, and whenever you^° wish, you^° are able to do^* them well, but you^° do not always have me. ^14:8 What this one had, she did^*. She took upon herself beforehand to perfume my body ^*for my burial. ^14:9 And assuredly I am saying to you^°, Wherever this good-news might be preached into the whole world, what this woman also did^* will be spoken ^*for her memorial.

 

             {Mar 14:10-11 & Mat 26:14-16 & Luk 22:3-6 & Joh 12:2-8.}

             ^14:10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went away to the high-priests in-order-that he might give him up to them. ^14:11 Now they heard it, and rejoiced and promised to give him silver. And he was seeking how he might opportunely give him up.

 

             {Mar 14:12-17 & Mat 2-20 & Luk 22:7-18, 22:24-30 Bethany to Jerusalem Thur. Evening.}

             ^14:12 And on the first day of unleavened bread, when they were sacrificing the Passover, his disciples say to him, After we have gone, where do you wish that we should prepare; in-order-that you might eat the Passover?

             ^14:13 And he sends two of his disciples and says to them, Proceed-away^° into the city and you^° will be encountering a man bearing a pitcher of water there. Follow^° him. ^14:14 And wherever he enters, say^° to the householder, The Teacher says, Where is the guestroom, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples? ^14:15 And he himself will be showing you^° a big furnished upper-room, which is ready. Prepare^° it for us there. ^14:16 And his disciples went forth, and came into the city and found it just-as he has said to them, and they prepared the Passover. ^14:17 And after it became evening, he comes with the twelve.

 

             {Joh 13:1-20 Thur. Evening.}

             {Mar 14:18-21, 14:27-31 & Mat 26:21-25, 26:31-35 & Luk 22:21-23, 22:31-38 & Joh 13:21-38.}

             ^14:18 And while they themselves are reclining and eating, Jesus said, Assuredly I am saying to you^°, One out-of you^° will be giving me up to the Jews, the one eating with me.

             ^14:19 Now they began to be sorrowful and to say to him every one {Or: one by one}, It is not I, is it? And another, It is not I, is it?

             ^14:20 But he answered and said to them, It is one out-of the twelve, he who dips with me in the dish. ^14:21 The Son of Man indeed proceeds-away, just-as it has been written concerning him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is given up! It was {i.e., would be} good for him, if that man was not ever born.

 

             {Mar 14:22-25 & Mat 26:26-29 & Luk 22:19-20, 1Co 11:23-26.}

             ^14:22 And while they are eating, Jesus took bread, gave-thanks, broke it and gave it to them and said, Take^°, eat^°; this is my body. ^14:23 And he took the cup, gave-thanks, gave it to them, and they all drank out-of it. ^14:24 And he said to them, This is my blood, the blood of the new covenant^*, which is poured out concerning many. ^14:25 Assuredly I am saying to you^°, I should never drink anymore from the fruit^* of the vine, until that day whenever I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

 

             {Joh 14-17 Thur. Night, Fri. to the Jews.}

             {Mar 14:26, 14:32-42 & Mat 26:30, 26:36-46 & Luk 22:39-46 & Joh 18:1 Garden between Stream of Kidron and Mountain of Olives, Late Thur. night.}

             ^14:26 And they sung a hymn, and went forth to the Mountain of Olives.

             ^14:27 And Jesus says to them, All of you^° will be offended at me in this night, because it has been written, ‘I will be striking the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered.’ {Zec 13:7} ^14:28 But after the time for me to be raised, I will be preceding you^° into Galilee.

             ^14:29 But Peter was saying to him, Even if all will be offended, but not I.

             ^14:30 And Jesus says to him, Assuredly I am saying to you, Today, even in this night, before the rooster is to crow twice, you will be denying me three-times.

             ^14:31 But Peter spoke rather exceptionally, If it should be essential for me to die together-with you, I should never deny you! Now likewise^*, they also all were saying it.

 

             ^14:32 And they come to a parcel of ground of which the name is Gethsemane, and he says to his disciples, Sit^° here until I should pray. ^14:33 And he takes Peter and James and John with himself, and he began to be utterly amazed and deeply-depressed. ^14:34 And he says to them, My soul is very sorrowful until death, remain^° here and watch^°.

             ^14:35 And he went a little further, fell upon the earth and was praying in-order-that, if it is possible, the hour might pass-away from him. ^14:36 And he was saying, Abba, Father, all things are possible for you; carry this cup away from me, but not what I will, but what you will.

             ^14:37 And he comes and finds them sleeping, and says to Peter, Simon, do you sleep? Were you not strong-enough to watch one hour? ^14:38 Watch^° and pray^°, in-order-that you^° may not enter into temptation. The spirit is indeed eager, but the flesh is weak.

             ^14:39 And again he went away and prayed, and said the same speech.

             ^14:40 And he returned, and found them sleeping again, for^* their eyes were heavy, and they did not know what they should answer him.

             ^14:41 And while coming the third-time, he says to them, Furthermore, are you^° sleeping and resting yourselves? It is adequate.

             The hour came already. Behold, the Son of Man is given up into the hands of sinners. ^14:42 Arise^°, Let us be proceeding. Behold, the one giving me up has drawn near.

 

             {Mar 14:43-52 & Mat 26:47-56 & Luk 22:47-53 & Joh 18:2-11 Gethsemane, Fri. a few hours before dawn.}

             ^14:43 And immediately, as he is still speaking, Judas, being one of the twelve, comes^* and with him, a large crowd with swords and clubs from the high-priests, and the scribes and the elders. ^14:44 Now the one giving him up, had given them a predefined gesture, saying, Whomever I kiss, it is he; take-hold^° of him and securely lead^° him away. ^14:45 And he went to the place, and immediately went to him and says to him, Rabbi, rabbi, and kissed him. ^14:46 Now they put hands upon him and took-hold of him.

             ^14:47 But a certain one of the ones standing beside him, pulled his sword, and struck the bondservant of the high-priest and took off his ear.

             ^14:48 And Jesus answered and said to them, Did you^° come forth, as against a robber with swords and clubs to take me? ^14:49 I was with you^° daily teaching in the temple and you^° have not taken-hold of me, but this is done in-order-that the Scriptures might be fulfilled.

 

             ^14:50 And they all left him and fled. ^14:51 And one, a certain young-man followed with him, who has been dressed in a linen cloth over his naked body, and the young-menn take-hold of him; ^14:52 but he left the linen cloth and fled from them naked.

 

             {Joh 18:12-14, 19-23 Fri. before dawn.}

             {Mar 14:53 & Mat 26:57 & Luk 22:54a & Joh 18:24 Palace of Caiaphas, before dawn.}

             ^14:53 And they led Jesus away to the high-priest, and all the high-priests and the elders and the scribes are coming together-with him there.

 

             {Mar 14:54 & Mat 26:58 & Luk 22:54b-62 & Joh 18:15-18 Courtyard of High Priest’s residence, Fri. around dawn.}

             ^14:54 And Peter followed him from afar, until he was inside, into the courtyard of the high-priest, and he was sitting together with the attendants and warming himself in the light of the fire.

 

             {Mar 14:55-65 & Mat 26:59-68 & Luk 22:63-65.}

             ^14:55 Now the high-priests and the whole council were seeking testimony against Jesus, ^*that^* they might slay him, and they were not finding it. ^14:56 For^* many were falsely testifying against him, and yet their testimonies were not equal. ^14:57 And some stood up, and were falsely testifying against him, saying, ^14:58 We heard him say, I will be tearing-down this temple, the one handmade, and I will be building another through three days not handmade. ^14:59 And thus, neither was their testimony equal.

             ^14:60 And the high-priest stood up in the midst of them, and asked Jesus, saying, Are you answering nothing? What are these witnesses testifying against you? ^14:61 But he was silent and answered nothing. Again the high-priest was asking him and says to him, Are you the Christ, the Son of the Gracious^* One?

             ^14:62 But Jesus said, I am, and you^° will be seeing the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of power and coming with the clouds of heaven.

             ^14:63 But the high-priest ripped his tunics, and says, Why do we still have need of witnesses? ^14:64 You^° have heard the blasphemy. What does it appear to you^°? Now they all condemned him to be liable of death. ^14:65 And some began to spit on him and to cover his face and to batter him, and to say to him, Prophesy! And the attendants were casting him around with slaps on the cheek. {i.e., throwing him back and forth so everyone could slap Jesus.}

 

             {Mar 14:66-72 & Mat 26:69-75 & Luk 22:55-62 & Joh 18:25-27.}

             ^14:66 And Peter being below in the courtyard, one of the maidservants of the high-priest comes. ^14:67 And she saw Peter warming himself, looked at him and says, You were also with Jesus, the Nazarene.

             ^14:68 But he denied it, saying, I do not know him, nor know what you are saying, and he went outside into the forecourt, and the rooster crowed.

             ^14:69 And the maidservant saw him and began again to say to the ones standing beside her, This one is from them. ^14:70 But he again was denying it. And after a little while, the ones standing beside them were again saying to Peter, You truly are from them. For^* you are a Galilean and your speech is similar.

             ^14:71 But he began to curse and swear, I do not know this man of whom you^° are speaking. ^14:72 And the rooster crowed the second-time. And Peter was reminded of the declaration which Jesus said to him, Before the rooster is to crow twice, you will be denying me three-times. And he put his mind upon it, and was weeping. {i.e., he thought about what he had done and wept.}
