Luke 22:43-45
1599 Geneva Bible
43 And there appeared an Angel unto him from heaven, comforting him.
44 But being in an [a]agony, he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was like [b]drops of blood, trickling down to the ground.
45 [c]And he rose up from prayer, and came to his disciples, and found them sleeping for heaviness.

- Luke 22:44 This agony showeth that Christ strove much, and was in great distress: for Christ strove not only with the fears of death, as other men used to do, for so many martyrs might seem more constant than Christ, but with the fearful judgment of his angry Father, which is the fearfullest thing in the world: and the matter was, for that he took the burden of all our sins upon himself.
- Luke 22:44 These do not only show that Christ was true man, but other things also which the goodly have to consider of, wherein redemption of all mankind is contained in the son of God his debasing himself to the state of a servant: such things as no man can sufficiently declare.
- Luke 22:45 Men are utterly sluggish, even in their greatest dangers until Christ stir them up.
