Hebrews 5:7

Days of his flesh] The expression denotes, of course, His earthly life, but with the implied suggestion of humiliation and weakness.

Prayers and supplications] The reference is clearly to the Agony in Gethsemane. To save him from death] lit. 'out of death.' If Jesus prayed to be saved from death, it could not be said that His petition was granted. He prayed to be saved 'out of death,' and the answer to His prayer consisted in His victory over death—His resurrection. In that he feared] RV 'for his godly fear,' lit. 'from His fear.' The statement that Christ 'was heard from His fear' is taken by some as a pregnant construction equivalent to 'was heard and delivered from His fear (of death).' But this sense of the word rendered 'fear' is unusual; it means reverence or piety; and if the interpretation of the prayer given above is accepted, Christ showed His godly fear in His submission, expressed in the words, 'Not My will, but Thine be done.'
