====22:44 Did Jesus literally sweat blood or was His sweat merely like blood?====
Jesus' blood was literally mingled with His sweat. This is a condition called Hermatidrosis which affects people going through extreme mental anguish and stress, such as Christ was going through in his agony in the garden, which He Himself said had brought Him to the threshold of death ('''cp''' Mt 26:38; Mk 14:33-35). 

Hermatidrosis is a dangerous condition in which the walls of the subcutaneous capillaries - hair-like blood vessels under the skin - rupture and infuse blood into the perspiration of the one affected. See also comments on Mt 26:36-44, 27:45-46; Jn 18:11.
