Matthew26:36
36 Then came Jesus with them, unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.
Mark leaveth out Yonder, Ch. 14.32. Luke saith, Ch. 22.39. He came out, and w[illegible: 1 letter]nt as he was wont, to the Mount of Olives, and his Disciples followed him. And when he was at the place, he said unto them: Pray that you enter not into Temptation. And he was withdrawn from them a stones cast, and kneeled down and Prayed. Whether this Gethsemane, were the name of a Garden, or of a Village, wherein was a Garden, is not much Material for us to know: In Ierusalem they say, they had no Gardens, but their Gardens were without the Gates; certain it is, it was on the other side of the Brook Cedron, Ioh. 18.1. and either in, or at the Foot of the Mount of Olives. Thither Christ went with his Disciples: That is, eleven of them, we shall hear of the twelfth by and by, Luke saith, that he bad his Disciples Pray, that they might not enter into Temp[illegible: 1 letter]ation: These Words Matthew and Mark have, after Christ's first return to them: They say, he now said only, Sit you here, while I go and Pray yonder.
