How do we know Jesus was forsaken by all?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible recounts that all of Jesus' disciples forsook Him and fled during His arrest at Gethsemane.

In the passage from Mark 14:50, it is stated that 'they all forsook Him and fled' when Jesus was arrested. This demonstrates the abandonment He faced from those who had been closest to Him, imbuing a profound sense of loneliness in His moment of greatest need. Despite His teachings and demonstrations of love, the disciples' fear and human frailty led them to abandon their Master. This act fulfilled the prophetic utterances of scriptures that indicated that Christ would be forsaken, allowing Him to fulfill the required sacrifice for the sins of His chosen people. The abandonment serves as a reminder of Christ's suffering and the depth of human sinfulness.
