Gethsemane & The Mount of Olives

And going a little farther, he fell on the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. And he said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.”
Mark 14:35‭-‬36

Gethsemane means oil press. It was a familiar meeting place for Jesus and his disciples on the Mount of Olives. This is likely why Judas knew exactly where Jesus would be.

David shared that there are four cups used during the Seder meal, which represent the four promises given by God to Israel in Exodus 6: 6-7 : Sanctification, Deliverance, Redemption, and Completion. But there is a fifth cup, the Cup of Elijah or the Cup of God's Wrath. This is the cup that Jesus asked the Father to remove from him. But Jesus submitted to his Father's will and drank the cup of Wrath, enabling us to drink the cup of Redemption.Meer informatie
