17 And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
17 When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve.
17 And when it was evening, he came with the twelve.
17 After sunset he came with the Twelve.
17 In the evening He came with the twelve.
17 In the evening Jesus arrived with the Twelve.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Mark 14:17
Commentary on Mark 14:12-21
(Read Mark 14:12-21)
Nothing could be less the result of human foresight than the events here related. But our Lord knows all things about us before they come to pass. If we admit him, he will dwell in our hearts. The Son of man goes, as it is written of him, as a lamb to the slaughter; but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed! God's permitting the sins of men, and bringing glory to himself out of them, does not oblige them to sin; nor will this be any excuse for their guilt, or lessen their punishment.
