CommentTheophylact of OhridPublic domainMark 14:32–42

But after His prayer, the Lord coming, and seeing His disciples sleeping, rebukes Peter alone. Wherefore it goes on: “And saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch with me one hour?

As if He had said, If thou couldest not watch one hour with me, how wilt thou be able to despise death, thou who promisest to die with Me?

It goes on: “Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation,” that is, the temptation of denying Me.
