But Jesus said unto them,
You know not what you ask: can you drink of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?
All Commentaries on Mark 10:38 Go To Mark 10
Cornelius a Lapide
AD 1637
Or be baptised with the baptism wherewith I am baptized. Christ calls His Passion a baptism, because He was to be evidently immersed and drowned in it, according to what David says of himself, but much more of Christ ( Psalm 69:12), "Save me, 0 God; for the waters are come in unto my soul. I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me."
