The harmony of the Gospels in the holy history of the humiliation and sufferings…

Now the History returneth to Judas, whom we left, preparing his Company to execute his wicked Treason in betraying his Lord and Master, when he had gotten his Company, a band of men and Officers, furnished with Swords, Staves, Clubs, Lanterns, Torches, &c. no doubt he first led them to the house where he had left Jesus and his Disciples, but he found that they were gone from thence some hours ago, which might vex them, but Judas encouraging them, he knew the place whither they were gone, Joh. 18.2. Judas who betrayed him knew the place, for Jesus oft times resorted thither with his Disciples; unto this place he led them; how they got into the garden, is not said, but Judas their Leader knew how to get in, and did so.

Now the History returneth to Iudas, whom we left, preparing his Company to execute his wicked Treason in betraying his Lord and Master, when he had gotten his Company, a band of men and Officers, furnished with Swords, Staves, Clubs, Lanthorns, Torches, &c. no doubt he first led them to the house where he had left Iesus and his Disciples, but he found that they were gone from thence some hours ago, which might vex them, but Iudas incouraging them, he knew the place whither they were gone, Ioh. 18.2. Iudas who betrayed him knew the place, for Iesus oft times resorted thither with his Disciples; unto this place he led them; how they got into the garden, is not said, but Iudas their Leader knew how to get in, and did so.

And this is greatly to be observed, that by such time as they were come, Jesus Christ was ready for them, he had ordered and placed his Disciples, he had finished his Soul Agony, and prayers, and he had no sooner finished that great work, but the Traitor and his Crew came, he steppeth out of one furnace into another, he had finished his Soul conflict under the wrath of God, now falleth into the wrathful hand of man, from one suffering into another; the time of his last sufferings was now come. In the management of this matter there be sundry particulars.
