Context of Luke 22:42

40When they arrived there he said to them, ‘Ask God to help you, so that you do not want to do wrong things.’ 41Then he went away from them about as far as you can throw a stone. He went down on his knees and he prayed, ‘Father, if you want, you can save me from this time of great pain. But I do not ask you to do what I want. Do what you want to do.’ 43Then an angel came to him from heaven. The angel made him stronger. 44Jesus began to have troubles in his mind. He prayed again even more strongly. His sweat became like blood and it fell to the ground.

Some have supposed from this that he was not divine as well as human; for if he was “God,” how could an angel give any strength or comfort? and why did not the divine nature “alone” sustain the human?
