Hebrews 5:7
Who in the days of his flesh. Christ, while on earth, is referred
to.
When he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying
and tears. A particular time when these earnest supplications were
offered is pointed out. The agony of Gethsemane is meant. It was then
that he said, "If it is possible, let this cup pass from me"
(Matthew 26:39 Mr 14:36 Lu 22:42). Even there he
was heard. For an angel descended to strengthen him (Luke 22:43).
In that he feared. Reverenced the Father in humble submission. A
pious fear is meant.
