‘makes Jesus reply: one of the Twelve ; he who dippeth with me in the dish. A repetition of the original declaration with variations: the Twelve for you, and dipping in the dish for eating ; the former bringing out the gravity of the fact, the Twelve chosen to be Apostles of the faith, one of them the traitor of its Author; the latter narrowing the circle within which the traitor is to be found. Twelve ate with Jesus, only three or four would dip with Him.—épBarrdpevos, middle, dipping with his own hand: “Ἠαες vis medii verbi,” Bengel.—Ver. 21. ὅτι, assigns a reason for the fact just stated. To fulfil Scripture (Ps. xli. ϱ) the Son of Man must go from the earth through betrayal by an intimate. instance in Mk. of the construction μὲν δὲ (again in νετ. 38 and in xvi. 10, 20).— καλὸν αὐτῷ, good for him, without the ἦν asin Mt. For the construction vide on Mt. and Burton, M. and T. in N.

T.R. from Mt.
Cf. Mk. ii. 20, ‘‘days will come, etc., and then shall they fast, in that day”. Vv. 22-25. The Lord’s Supper (Mt. xxvi. 26-29, Lk. xxii. 19-20), vide notes on Mt.’s account, to which Mk.’s closely corresponds.—Ver. 22. ἐσθιόντων a., while they were eating, as in ver. 18; a very general indication of time. This and the announcement of the betrayal are for Mt. and Mk. the two memorabilia of the paschal feast of Jesus with His dis- ciples, and all they know is that they happened during feast-time. — AaPere, take, without φάγετε, as in Mt.; the more laconic expression likely to be the original. ‘“‘ Take” implies ‘‘ eat ’’.—Ver. 23. καὶ ἔπιον, etc., and they drank of it, all, In Mt.’s account Jesus bids them drink, as He had previously bidden them eat. Mk.’s version strikes one as the more primitive ; Mt.’s as influenced by liturgical usage.—Ver. 24. καὶ εἶπεν: while they drank the cup (not after they had drunk it, De Wette: nor before they began to drink, as Mt.’s narrative by itself would suggest), Jesus ex- plained to them the symbolic import of
