And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

Ver. 50. As far as to Bethany] Where his three dear friends dwelt, Lazarus, Martha, and Mary. From hence he went to his cross, and from hence he would go to his crown.

He lift up his hands] As a good householder; or rather as the high priest of the New Testament: benedixit, id est, valedixit, he blessed them, and so bade them farewell.
