Could any of the disciples have seen Jesus sweat blood?
A:This passage is only found in Luke's Gospel (Luke 22:44): "And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground." It supposedly took place while Jesus was praying alone in the Garden of Gethsemene and the disciples were asleep some way off.The passage is ambiguous as to whether Jesus sweated actual blood, or drops of sweat that simply looked like blood. Clearly, there was no witness to this, and it is not told in any of the other gospels. Moreover, scholars have now established that Luke's Gospel was substantially based on Mark's Gospel, so the reference to Jesus sweating blood, or like blood, is an embellishment intended to impress Luke's original audience. No one saw Jesus sweat blood.
