"CHRIST, in the days of HIS mortal life, offered HIS sacrifice with tears and cries. HE prayed to HIM, who could save HIM from death, and HE was heard, because of HIS humble submission. Although HE was Son, HE learned, through suffering, what obedience was, and, once made perfect, HE became the source of eternal salvation, for those who obey HIM." - Hebrews 5:7-9
(HE offered HIS sacrifice with tears and cries. In Scripture, these words are used to express the insistent prayer of the oppressed children of GOD: they cry to GOD in such a loud voice that HE listens to them. Thus, the night before HIS death, JESUS identified with men and women who suffer and do not want to die.)
