And He withdrew from them about a stone's throw, and He knelt down and began to pray, saying, 'Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me; yet not My will, but Yours be done.' ~Luke 22:39-42 "Now Judas also, who was betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had often met there with His disciples.
