Mark 14:29 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Although all shall be offended,— It is most probable that Judas by this timehad slipped away from the disciples, to fulfil his vile contract with the sanhedrim; and Peter missing him vaunted, that though all his fellow-apostles should follow Judas's example; he would stand by his Lord. We may observe, that if St. Mark's Gospel was dictated or reviewed by St. Peter, as the ancients affirm, the latter, out of his deep penitence, represents the event with the highest aggravations; for nothing can be stronger than the expressions in Mark 14:31.
