# Connecting Statement:
When they go to Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives, Jesus encourages three of his disciples to stay awake while he prays. Twice he awakens them, and the third time he tells them to wake up because it is time for the betrayal.
# They came to the place
The word "they" refers to Jesus and his disciples.
# distressed
overwhelmed with sorrow
# deeply troubled
The word "deeply" refers to Jesus being greatly troubled in his soul. AT: "extremely troubled" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# My soul is
Jesus speaks of himself as his "soul." AT: "I am" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])
# even to the point of death
Jesus is exaggerating because he feels so much distress and sorrow that he feels like he is about to die, though he knows he will not die until after the sun rises. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hyperbole]])
# watch

The disciples were to stay alert while Jesus prayed. This does not mean that they were supposed to watch Jesus pray.
