Answered in 1 source

The Bible details Christ's deep sorrow and agony in Gethsemane, illustrating His struggle as He prepared for His impending crucifixion.

In Matthew 26:36-46, Christ experiences profound agony as He approaches His crucifixion, emphasizing His dual nature as both fully God and fully man. He grapples with the weight of our sins being imputed to Him, not through any corruption or personal sin, but as He bears the wrath of God on behalf of His people. This moment in the garden reveals the intensity of His suffering prior to the cross, demonstrating that His agony was part of a greater divine plan for redemption and underscoring His willingness to fulfill the Father's will for our salvation.
