Matthew 26:36 - Additional Comments

Though it was late at night, probably near midnight, all the apostles (except Judas) followed Jesus to the Mount of Olives. I'd guess He asked them to go with Him, for other times He would depart to the mountain to pray by Himself, and they did not follow (Matt 14:23).
Their loyalty to Him was tremendous... that is, until the danger came when He was arrested, and they all fled. It's easy to follow Jesus now, but I pray that we will be able to follow Jesus when it gets difficult (e.g. the way it is in China).
