Matthäus 26:42 Meaning and Commentary

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.

Matthäus 26:42 In-Context

40 Und er kommt zu den Jüngern und findet sie schlafend; und er spricht zu Petrus: also nicht eine Stunde vermochtet ihr mit mir zu wachen?
41 Wachet und betet, auf daß ihr nicht in Versuchung kommet; der Geist zwar ist willig, das Fleisch aber schwach.
42 Wiederum, zum zweiten Male, ging er hin und betete und sprach: Mein Vater, wenn dieser Kelch nicht an mir vorübergehen kann, ohne daß ich ihn trinke, so geschehe dein Wille.
43 Und als er kam, fand er sie wiederum schlafend, denn ihre Augen waren beschwert.
44 Und er ließ sie, ging wiederum hin, betete zum dritten Male und sprach dasselbe Wort.
