The Prayer of Jesus in the Garden

The Last Supper being over, the discourse finished, and the hymn of thanksgiving said, Jesus leaves the supper-room with his eleven Apostles and enters the Garden of Gethsemane. Consider: 1. Jesus is in the habit of retiring after the fatigues of the day, to pass the night in solitude and prayer. Even on this last evening of His life, He does not depart from His pious custom.
