Context of Luke 22:43

Commentaries on Luke 22:43

As man, he needs the assistance of an angel to support his body, worn down by fatigue and suffering. See at the end of Luke 22:44; (note).Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 39-46Verses 39-46 See the Luke 22:43 Strengthening him - His human nature, to sustain the great burden that was upon his soul.

Here are three things not in the other evangelists. 1. When Christ was in his agony, there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. It was a part of his humiliation that he was thus…Read the comment
