ISB ~ Mark 14 v36
Abba:An Aramaic word meaning “Father”. Jesus uses it to address God the Father and underscore their intimate relationship (Mt 11:27). Paul preserves this title for God in Rom 8:15 and Gal 4:6.
• The divine Fatherhood of God is a familiar teaching from t
he OT, where Yahwehis called the Father of Israel (Deut 32:6; Ps 103:13; Jer 31:9) and the Father of David and his ro
yal successors(2 Sam 7:14; Ps 89:26-27). remove this chalice: Jesus fears his impending Passion and Crucifixion (Heb 5:7). See notes on Mt 26:39 and Mk 10:38. what you will: Jesus fully embraced the plan of salvation and so surrendered his human will perfectly and continuously to the Father’s divine will (Jn 6:38; 8:29; Phil 2:8).
