The Agony in the Garden (Matthew 26:39) Jesus saw in the garden of olives saw the sins of the world unfolded before him, and his precious blood flowed from pore at the vision of the torture and death he was to undergo, and he cried out in anguish, "Abba!

The Carrying of the Cross (Matthew 27: 31-32) With the heavy wood of the cross upon his shoulders Jesus was dragged, weak and suffering yet patient, through the streets of Jerusalem to the hill of Calvary, falling often but urged along by the cruel blows of his executioners and the revilement of the crowd.
