What does the Bible say about the Lord's agony in the garden?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes the Lord's agony in the garden of Gethsemane as profound suffering, where Jesus prayed earnestly, and His sweat became like drops of blood.

The agony of the Lord Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane is depicted in Luke 22:44, where it states, 'and being in an agony he prayed more earnestly and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.' This suffering transcends mere physical pain and extends to crushing spiritual anguish as He anticipates bearing the sins of humanity. The name Gethsemane itself suggests a 'crushing,' likening the weight of sin He bore to grapes being crushed to produce wine.
