HEMATIDROSIS: The clinical term is “hematidrosis.” “Around the sweat glands, there are multiple blood vessels in a net-like form.” Under the pressure of great stress the vessels constrict. Then as the anxiety passes “the blood vessels dilate to the point of rupture. The blood goes into the sweat glands.” As the sweat glands are producing a lot of sweat, it pushes the blood to the surface - coming out as droplets of blood mixed with sweat.

Microscopic observation of Inflammation: At first the blood cells maintain their normal position in the central axis stream but soon the distinction between ‘clear outer zone’ in the small vessels disappears, and ‘Leucocytes’ begins to stick to damaged ‘Endothelium’. In the most cases injury causes leakage of plasma portions long before ‘Leucocytes’ occurs the escape of plasma is purely passive affair and this is partly true for ‘Leucocytes’ which how ever also active amoebid movement called DIAPEDISIS. A Leucocytes can passes through a vessel wall is 2 to 13 minutes, this passing direction is through damage tissue & this movements is ‘Chemotaxis’. Injury also caused platelets to adhere to ‘Endothelium’ and each other, thus forming platelets clumps or ‘Thrombi’. 16 Reasonedtruth.com

Possible Cup which He denied to drink: Contrast

. . . into the Jesus staggered in Gethsemane as Contd he gazed cup he must drink, for taking it meant he would drink man’s sin to the full and would drink the wrath of God which man’s sin deserved. Christ asked that the cup be taken away because he was truly man as well as God. We must also realize that his request for another way came from the two things he saw in the cup. First, it was a cup full of sin. (Galatians: 5:19) Second, he saw that it was a cup full of wrath.” (2 Corinthians 5:21). The drinking also made him a curse. (Galatians 3:13) Gazing into the cup, Jesus saw Hell opened for him, and he staggered (Isaiah 51:17, 22). It is no wonder that we see the blood-like sweat and the 19 tears, that we hear him crying out for deliverance. It Reasonedtruth.com

Conclusion “You see that death was not voluntary for Christ as

far as the flesh was concerned, but it was voluntary, because by it, according to the will of the Father, salvation and life were given to all men.”

His sufferings were only intended to teach the human race how to love one another. “He learned obedience in the school of suffering” His obedience of course was toward God’s holy law but it was also and “obedience unto death, even the death of the cross” (Phil. 2:8). As partakers of the life of Christ, we must realize there is only one acceptable posture—submission to him who gave himself for us. (Romans 12:1) 21 Reasonedtruth.com
