The Isolated Jesus
Seven Messages For Good Friday Or Lent Based Upon Mark's Passion Of Jesus
This is the last scene in which Peter is involved.
As often happens throughout the gospel of Mark
Peter is the representative disciple.
He represents the other 10, maybe the whole 12.
Until this time the other disciples
were as much to blame as he was
in their betrayals of Jesus.
He had taken an oath, voluntarily,
to stay with Jesus until death, if necessary.
The others had said the same thing.
The betrayal, when it came in the orchard,
involved all of the disciples.
"They all forsook him and fled."
