Which Gospels describe Jesus sweating drops of blood in the Garden, and which one omits it?
The three Synoptic Gospels record Jesus' agony in the Garden and His sweating drops of blood. The Gospel of John omits that account. This difference reflects that the Synoptics deal primarily with His humanity, while John presents Him as God.
Les explains that the three Synoptic Gospels all record Jesus' agony in the Garden and how He sweat drops of blood. They also all record His temptations because they deal primarily with His humanity as the Son of God. John, however, does not record the Garden agony and never mentions the temptations, because John looks only from the fact that Jesus is God. Les also notes that in the three Synoptics it is correct to say He prayed to the Father, which is another difference. He emphasizes that you cannot lose sight of this distinction: the Synoptics present His human side, while John emphasizes His deity.
