Matthew 26:30 Douay-Rheims

And a hymn being said, they went out unto mount Olivet.

Bede the Venerable

c. A.D. 672–735 Patristic

(in Luc. 22:39.) Beautifully after the disciples have been filled with the Sacraments of His Body and Blood, and, commended to the Father in a hymn of pious intercession, does He lead them into the mount of Olives; thus by type teaching us how we ought, by the working of His Sacraments, and the aid of His intercession, mount up to the higher gifts of the virtues and the graces of the Holy Spirit, with which we are anointed in our hearts.
