Did you ever want to do something that you were afraid to do? You may hesitate and try to find excuses not to do it, but you know that you will because that's what you really want oe need to do. Jesus was dealing with his fear of what was to come.

If I commit murder, it doesn't absolve me of my sins. The only blood that does is the blood of Jesus. That is the only blood sacrifice that saves us. The old testament sacrifices were useless to absolve anyone from sin.
