What does Matthew 26:45 mean?

Jesus' previous prayers (Matthew 26:36–44) came in moments of intense personal anguish (Mark 14:34; Luke 22:44). Now, so far as Matthew's description seems, He is calm and collected. After praying three times, He seems to have eliminated stresses from His mind, regarding what has been planned for Him (Matthew 16:21). The time has come, and He will not resist it. This is what the Father wants from Him.

Now Jesus returns to Peter, James, and John, still sleeping, and He wakes them one last time. He tells them to sleep later. The time for praying and waiting is over. He, the Son of Man, is betrayed into the hands of sinners. These sinners include Judas, the chief priests, and the elders. Jesus tells His disciples to "see," pointing to the mob coming to arrest Him (Matthew 26:47).
