And when he was at the place,.... In the garden, at Gethsemane, which was at the foot of the Mount of Olives; he said unto them; to the disciples, as the Persic version reads; pray that ye enter not into temptation. This, according to the Evangelists Matthew and Mark, was said to them after he had prayed the first time, and returned to the disciples, and found them sleeping; See Gill on Mat 26:41.
