We start with the Last Supper, which began "when it was evening" (Mark 14:17), or when the sun went down: approximately 6 pm.
This is a chiastic structure in which the first set of four period is mirrored in the second set. Between 9 and 12 in the evening, Jesus agonised in Gethsemene while the disciples were spiritually absent in sleep. Between 9 and 12 the next morning, Jesus suffered on the cross while the disciples were absent.
The later gospels, now known to have been dependent on this account, blur Mark's chronological order, which their authors did not see as important. John's Gospel omits the passage in which Jesus prays and agonises in Gethsemane and then has the beloved disciple at the foot of the cross, but Mark makes it clear that those of Jesus acquaintance watched from afar.
Peter, James, and John were sleeping while Jesus was praying and agonizing in Gethsemane. Jesus had asked them to stay awake and keep watch, but they were unable to stay awake.
The Garden of Gethsemane (pronounced geth-SEM-any)
The garden where Jesus prayed before He was captured is called the Garden of Gethsemane. It is located at the base of the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem. It is a significant site for Christians as it is where Jesus grappled with his impending crucifixion and prayed to God.
Jesus took Peter, James, and John with him when he went to heal Jairus' daughter. These three disciples often accompanied Jesus on important occasions, such as the Transfiguration and Gethsemane.
Jesus knew He would soon be put to death and prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane.
Gethsemane is a garden at the foot of the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem that is significant in Christianity as the place where Jesus prayed and was arrested before his crucifixion. It is a site of deep spiritual significance for Christians as it represents Jesus' obedience to God's will and his acceptance of his impending sacrifice.
