>> Holy Pascha Week, Saint Ephraim the Syrian Contemplation on the 6th hour of the Eve of Great Friday (2)

"His sweat became like great drops of blood…" (Luke 22:44) 

He sweated to heal Adam who was sick. "It is by sweat of your brow," God said, "that you will eat your bread." (Gen 3:19) He remained in prayer in this garden to bring Adam back to his own garden again.
