What does the Bible say about Jesus' agony in Gethsemane?

Answered in 1 source

In Gethsemane, Jesus experienced deep agony as He prayed while bearing the weight of humanity's sin.

The Bible describes Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane as being in profound agony, praying earnestly with sweat like great drops of blood falling to the ground (Luke 22:44). This moment reveals the intensity of His suffering as He faced the impending crucifixion and the burden of our sins being imputed to Him, as foretold in Isaiah 53. It is here that we see the sacred human nature of Christ grappling with the full weight of sin that He came to bear, highlighting His role as our sin-bearer who suffered in our stead, fulfilling the prophecy of being wounded for our transgressions.
Scripture References: Luke 22:41-44, Isaiah 53
