Jesus and the disciples traveled to the Garden of Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives outside of Jerusalem after their Passover meal. Jesus took Peter, James, and John further into the garden while telling them to wait. He prayed alone three times, asking God to take away his impending suffering but submitting to God's will. During his prayers, Jesus sweated blood from the emotional anguish. When he returned from his third prayer, he told the disciples that Judas was coming to betray him.
