[46]Matthew 26:42
He went away again the second time
To the same place as before, or at some little distance; after he had
reproved his disciples for their sleeping, and had exhorted them to
watchfulness and prayer, suggesting the danger they were liable to, and
the condition they were in:
and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from
me except I drink it, thy will be done.
The sense of this prayer to his God and Father is, that if his
sufferings and death could not be dispensed with; if it was not
consistent with the decrees of God, and the covenant of grace, that he
should be excused from them; or if the glory of God, and the salvation
of his people required it, that he must drink up that bitter cup, he
was content to do it; desiring in all things to submit unto, and to
fulfil his Father's will, though it was so irksome and disagreeable to
nature.
