Gethsemane in Mark 14
geth-SEM-uh-nee
This place shows up in Mark 14:32: “They came to a place which was named Gethsemane. He said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I pray.”” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Mark 14:32
“They came to a place which was named Gethsemane. He said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I pray.””
