LUKE 22:42 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.”
Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done — Father: the intimate address. If you are willing, take this cup: the genuine human desire to avoid the passion — the fully human Jesus who does not seek suffering. Yet not my will, but yours be done: the voluntary alignment of the human will with the divine will. The consent of the one who will be betrayed.
