Luke 22:42 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 22:42

Saying, Father, if thou be willing
If it be consistent with thy will of saving sinners, and which thou hast declared to me, and I have undertook to perform: the other evangelists say, "if it be possible"; (See Gill on Matthew 26:39) remove this cup from me;
meaning, either his present sorrows and distress, or his approaching sufferings and death, which he had in view, or both: nevertheless not my will;
as man, for Christ had an human will distinct from, though not contrary to his divine will: but thine be done;
which Christ undertook, and came into this world to do; and it was his meat and drink to do it, and was the same with his own will, as the Son of God; (See Gill on Matthew 26:39), and (See Gill on Matthew 26:42).

Luke 22:42 In-Context

40 et cum pervenisset ad locum dixit illis orate ne intretis in temptationem
41 et ipse avulsus est ab eis quantum iactus est lapidis et positis genibus orabat
42 dicens Pater si vis transfer calicem istum a me verumtamen non mea voluntas sed tua fiat
43 apparuit autem illi angelus de caelo confortans eum et factus in agonia prolixius orabat
44 et factus est sudor eius sicut guttae sanguinis decurrentis in terram
