Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible

Mark 14:46

‘And they laid hands on him and took him.'

It was done. He was taken. For the watching disciples devastation beyond bearing. Surely something must happen to stop it? For the Jewish leadership triumph. They had feared the worst but had discovered that nothing did happen. For the Temple police relief. Nothing had happened. For the Roman soldiers just another duty. They had not expected anything to happen. For the angels in heaven awaiting the word of command, frustration. They were itching to make it happen. For His Father sacrifice beyond all sacrifices. Nothing would be allowed to happen.
