Exegesis
The prepositional phrase ap’ autou {ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ | ap autoû} marks Jesus as the one from whom this critical time is requested to pass. The Greek word order places the request for the hour to pass near the end, giving it climactic emphasis, which the translations mirror by retaining the final position of “the hour” in the sentence.
