Matthew 26:43 Context
41Watch and pray, that yee enter not into temptation: The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weake. 42He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my father, if this cup may not passe away from me, except I drinke it, thy will be done. 43And he came and found them asleep againe: For their eies were heauie. 44And he left them, and went away againe, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. 45Then commeth he to his Disciples, and saith vnto them, Sleepe on now, and take your rest, behold, the houre is at hand, and the sonne of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

People's Bible Notes for Matthew 26:43
Mt 26:43 He came and found them asleep again. The motive of this return we may reverently believe to have been, as before, the craving for human sympathy in that hour of awful agony. Our Savior, we must not forget, was human as well as divine.
