The Cup of Judgment

In Matthew's gospel, Jesus we read is given to drink on the cross. In Matthew 27, it says that they gave him to drink. And scholars are not sure whether Jesus actually drank of it or not. But an argument can be made that he does drink of it here. This is really significant because it would show us that the kingdom comes on the cross and it relates to what Jesus is earlier in the gospel,. The mother of James and John says to Jesus, let my son sit one at your right. And one at your left when you come into your kingdom... He says, can you drink the cup that I am?"
