This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Resorted thither (sunēchthē ekei). First aorist passive indicative of sunagō, old verb to gather together. A bit awkward here till you add “with his disciples.” Judas knew the place, and the habit of Jesus to come here at night for prayer (Luk 22:39). Hence his offer to catch Jesus while the feast was going on, catch him at night and alone in his usual place of prayer (the very spirit of the devil).
