Sažetak
The subject of this synoptic study is the prayer in Gethsemane (Mark 14,32-42). This pericope belongs to Mark’s account of the passion (Mark 14,1-15,47). In order to grasp the message of the text and the theological intention of Mark, we followed the usual synchronic method starting from the delimitation of the text, in respect to the following (Mark 14,26-31) and the preceding section (Mark 14,43-51). Semantic analysis is applied. The structure reveals the central motives of the prayer: it is here that Jesus exclusively addresses his Father with “Abba” (cf. Gal 4,6; Rm 8,15). The synoptic comparison displays Mark’s typical moments in the account of the passion, in respect to the prayer in Gethsemane, recorded by the two other synoptics (cf. Mk 26,36-46; Lk 22,39-46). The conclusion reflects the twofold importance of this pericope in the account of the passion, and in the context of the Gospel of Mark as a whole.
