frequent mention of His foreseen sufferings as the cup of which the Father would have Him drink (Matt. 26:39, 42; Mark 14:36; Luke 22:42; John 18:11; compare Matt. 20:22; Mark 10:38; 1 Cor. 10:21) is in line with Old Testament usage of the term "cup" as a symbolic expression for a bitter or poisonous potion typifying experiences of suffering. See Psa. 11:6; 75:8; Isa. 51:17, 22; Jer. 25:15, 17; 49:12. In contrast, the opposite meaning is attached to the use of the term in some passages, e.g. Psa. 16:5; 23:5; 116:13; Jer. 16:7. FOOTNOTES: [1179] Matt. 26:3-5; see also Mark 14:1; Luke 22:1, 2. [1180] Revised version of Matt. 26:5 reads: "Not during the feast, lest there be a tumult among the people." [1181] John 7:30, 44, 45-53; 11:47-57. [1182] Matt. 26:14-16; Mark 14:10, 11; Luke 22:3-6. [1183] Matt. 26:15. The revised version reads: "And they weighed unto him thirty pieces of silver." Compare Zech. 11:12. [1184] Exo. 21:32; Zech. 11:12, 13. [1185] Matt. 27:3-10. [1186] Matt. 26:17. [1187] Note 1, end of chapter. [1188] Matt. 26:17-19; Mark 14:12-16; Luke 22:7-13. [1189] It should be remembered that the Jews counted their days as beginning at sunset, not, as with us, at midnight. [1190] Note 2, end of chapter. [1191] Luke 22:24-30. [1192] Luke 14:7-11; see page 449 herein. [1193] Luke 22:28; see page 133 herein. [1194] John 13:1-20. [1195] Note 3, end of chapter. [1196] The Lord's expression "neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him" (John 13:16) is more correctly rendered "neither the apostle than he that sent him" (revised version, margin); see pages 228, 229 herein. [1197] Matt. 26:26-29; Mark 14:22-25; Luke 22:19, 20. [1198] In the revised version we read "covenant" instead of "testament" in Matt. 26:28, and in parallel passages. [1199] 1 Cor. 11:23-34. [1200] B. of M., 3 Nephi 18:6-11; Doc. and Cov. 20:75; see also the "Articles of Faith," ix. [1201] See "The Great Apostasy" 8:15-19. [1202] John 13:18-30. [1203] Compare Psalm 41:9. [1204] John 13:31-34. [1205] Lev. 19:18. [1206] So reads the revised version of Luke 22:32. [1207] Isa. 53:12; compare Mark 15:28. [1208] Read John 13:36-38; Luke 22:31-38; compare Matt. 26:31-35; Mark 14: 27-31. [1209] John, chaps. 14, 15, 16. [1210] John 14:1-4. [1211] See "The Articles of Faith," iv:28, 29; and xxii:16-27. [1212] John 14:13, 14; compare 16:24. [1213] John 14:15-20; co
