Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he came out,.... That is, "Christ", as the Persic version; or the "Lord Jesus", as the Ethiopic version expresses; he came out of the guestchamber, or upper room, and out of the house where he had been keeping the passover with his disciples; and he came out of the city of Jerusalem, to begin his sorrows and sufferings without the camp, where he was to end them:
and went, as he was wont, to the Mount of Olives. This had been his practice and custom for several nights past, as appears from
Luke 21:37. Hence Judas knew the place he now went to, and could direct the soldiers and officers where to go, and apprehend him; and this shows the willingness of Christ to be taken, in order to suffer and die; otherwise he would have gone to another place, and not this. The Ethiopic version adds, "to pray", as he did; and, as very likely he was used; for he would sometimes continue a whole night in prayer on a mountain; see Luke 6:12
and his disciples also followed him; eleven of them, for Judas was now gone to the chief priests to inform them where Christ was going, that they might seize him: but the other disciples followed him, which was so ordered, that they might be witnesses of his sorrows and agonies in the garden, and of his being betrayed by Judas, and apprehended by the Jews; though upon this they forsook him and fled.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See the Matthew 26:30-46 notes; Mark 14:26-42 notes.
Luke 22:43
Strengthening him - His human nature, to sustain the great burden that was upon his soul. Some have supposed from this that he was not divine as well as human; for if he was âGod,â how could an angel give any strength or comfort? and why did not the divine nature âaloneâ sustain the human? But the fact that he was âdivineâ does not affect the case at all. It might be asked with the same propriety, If he was, as all admit, the friend of God, and beloved of God, and holy, why, if he was a mere man, did not âGodâ sustain him alone, without an angelâs intervening? But the objection in neither case would have any force. The âman, Christ Jesus,â was suffering. His human nature was in agony, and it is the âmannerâ of God to sustain the afflicted by the intervention of others; nor was there any more âunfitnessâ in sustaining the human nature of his Son in this manner than any other sufferer.
Luke 22:44
In an agony - See this verse explained in the notes at Matthew 26:42-44.
Luke 22:45
Sleeping for sorrow - On account of the greatness of their sorrow. See the notes at Matthew 26:40.
