Rise
The Greek word used here is "ἐγείρεσθε" (egeiresthe), which is a command to awaken or to stand up. This word is often used in the New Testament to signify a call to action or readiness. In this context, Jesus is urging His disciples to prepare themselves for the imminent events. This call to "rise" is not just physical but also spiritual, as it signifies the need for vigilance and readiness in the face of trials and challenges. It is a reminder for believers to be spiritually alert and prepared for the fulfillment of God's plan.

let us go
The phrase "let us go" is translated from the Greek "ἄγωμεν" (agōmen), which implies movement and purpose. Jesus is not merely suggesting a change of location but is leading His disciples into the unfolding of God's redemptive plan. This movement is significant as it marks the transition from prayer and preparation to action and fulfillment. It reflects Jesus' obedience to the Father's will and His willingness to face the suffering that lies ahead. For believers, it is a call to follow Christ with determination and trust, even when the path is difficult.

See
The Greek word "ἰδοὺ" (idou) is an imperative that means "behold" or "look." It is used to draw attention to something significant. Here, Jesus is alerting His disciples to the immediate presence of His betrayer. This word serves as a wake-up call, emphasizing the urgency and gravity of the situation. It is a reminder for Christians to be observant and discerning, recognizing the spiritual realities and challenges that confront them.

My betrayer
The term "betrayer" is translated from the Greek "ὁ παραδιδούς" (ho paradidous), which means "the one who hands over" or "the one who delivers up." This refers to Judas Iscariot, who, despite being one of the twelve disciples, chose to betray Jesus. The use of "My" highlights the personal nature of the betrayal, underscoring the pain and sorrow of being betrayed by a close companion. This serves as a poignant reminder of the cost of sin and the depth of human betrayal, yet it also points to the greater narrative of redemption that God is orchestrating through these events.

is approaching
The phrase "is approaching" comes from the Greek "ἤγγικεν" (ēngiken), which means "has come near" or "is at hand." This indicates the immediacy of the betrayal and the beginning of the Passion of Christ. It signifies the fulfillment of prophecy and the unfolding of God's salvific plan. For believers, this serves as a reminder of the nearness of God's kingdom and the importance of being prepared for His coming. It calls Christians to live with a sense of urgency and expectation, knowing that God's purposes are being accomplished in His perfect timing.

(46) Rise, let us be going.--It is obvious that the latter clause does not involve any suggestion of flight, but rather a call to confront the danger.

Verse 46. - Rise, let us be going. He wilt meet, and he wishes his disciples to meet, the coming attack with alacrity and readiness. So with them he goes towards the entrance of the garden where he had left the eight. Behold. Judas and his companions come in sight.
