    1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Kidron, where was a garden, into which he entered, himself and his disciples.
    2 Now Judas also, who betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus oft-times resorted thither with his disciples. Jn 18

    I can answer with the opposite conundrum. Why would it be the Father's will that Jesus not die on the cross?

    The point of the Garden prayer was His complete submission to the Father's will. I believe Jesus knew it was the cross, but was simply stating His submission to the Father no matter what.

    I believe it goes to His incarnation in being really human. And the fact as the Son never ceased to be God too. Hebrews 4:15, Hebrews 5:8 and Luke 18:19.

    Like I have said in other words, Jesus, I think heavy sweat, that fell to the ground resembled clots of blood. So if that was to mean that there was blood in His sweat it could not have been a little. So I honestly cannot believe there was blood in Jesus' sweat. Did not say resembled blood, but resembled clots of blood.

    I did not intend to assert a particular view about the blood in post # 44, but simply that through that hymn Charles Wesley had connected Luke 22:44 and Hebrews 5:7-8.
