Thematic Bible
Humility of Christ » Exhibited in his » Submitting to sufferings
And My cheeks to those who pluck out the beard;
I did not cover My face from humiliation and spitting.
Yet He did not
And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers,
So He did not open His mouth.
Now the passage of Scripture which he was reading was this:
“He was led as a sheep to slaughter;
And as a lamb before its shearer is silent,
So He does not open His mouth.
“
And as a lamb before its shearer is silent,
So He does not open His mouth.
And He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be grieved and distressed. Then He said to them, "My soul is deeply grieved, to the point of death; remain here and keep watch with Me." And He went a little beyond them, and fell on His face and prayed, saying, "My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I will, but as You will."
