Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer — the command to rise ends the garden scene. Here comes my betrayer: Judas is visible, approaching with the crowd. The announcement is not alarmed but declarative — Jesus meets the betrayer with eyes open, having prayed through the crisis and arrived at the Father's will. The voluntary movement toward the betrayer (let us go) communicates the same acceptance expressed in the garden prayer.
