And then, Jesus Christ comments of that suffering Martin experienced which I believe to Martin was vastly unbearable, terrible, and immense, where Jesus Christ ways, “which suffering of which in the smallest, yea, even in the least degree you have tasted at the time I withdrew my Spirit” (loss of the Holy Ghost in the footnote, which degree of suffering he had only barely tasted!). That is telling more fully how IMMENSE, and INFINITE the suffering that Jesus Christ suffered was, far beyond any man’s and even any prophet’s ability to fully comprehend!
