, 1911), “to throw oneself upon,” is used metaphorically in
Mark 14:72, “when he thought thereon (he wept),” lit., “thinking thereon,” but “to think”
is an exceptional sense of the word (see
BEAT
,
CAST
,
LAY
,
PUT
); hence various
suggestions have been made. Field, following others, adopts the meaning “putting (his
garment) over (his head),” as an expression of grief. Others regard it as having here the
same meaning as
, “to begin” (at an early period, indeed,
was
substituted in the text for the authentic
); Moulton confirms this from a papyrus
writing. Another suggestion is to understand it as with
$
, mind, i.e., “casting his
mind thereon.”
Notes:
