MATTHEW 26:44 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.”
So, leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same words again. The third prayer: the same words again communicates the persistence and the genuine wrestling of the prayer. Jesus prays three times; Peter will deny three times. The three prayers of Jesus and the three denials of Peter are the contrasting pictures of two responses to the same crisis.
