Literally, though very awkwardly, it is, having become in an agony: having progressed from the first prayer (began to pray, <a href="//bible.cc/luke/22-41.htm">Luke 22:41</a>) into an intense struggle of prayer and sorrow. Wycliffe's rendering hints at this: and he, made in agony, prayed. Agony occurs only here. It is used by medical writers, and the fact of a sweat accompanying an agony is also mentioned by them.<p>More earnestly (ἐκτενέστερον)<p>See on fervently, <a href="//bible.cc/1_peter/1-22.htm">1 Peter 1:22</a>.<p>Was (ἐγένετο)<p>More correctly, as Rev., became. See on γενόμενος, being, above.<p>Great drops (θρόμβοι)<p>Only here in New Testament: gouts or clots. Very common in medical language.

And he touched his ear, and healed him.</div><div class="comm">Suffer ye thus far<p>This is variously interpreted. I think the text requires that the words should be addressed to the disciples, and taken as the answer to the question, shall we smite, etc. The meaning then is, permit them to go so far as to seize me.
