And caused him to drink the terrible Cup that was due to them all: and not only so, but did delight in so doing; For it pleased the Lord to bruise him. God dealt indeed with his Son, as Abraham would have dealt with Isaac, I, and more terribly by Ten Thousand parts: For he did not only tear his Body like a Lion, but made his Soul an Offering for Sin.

For, saith he, My Soul is exceeding sorrowful and amazed, even unto death, Mark 14. 33, 34.
