27 Sep (Matt 26:1-20)


The Gospels: The Betrayal of Jesus

Matthew 26:1-20

(v.2) When we have times where we think we are dumb and not in tune with Christ, take comfort in the fact that Jesus spoke clearly here that He would be arrested and crucified...yet the disciples didn't believe Him until they saw Him resurrected!

(v.15) Judas betrays Jesus for thirty pieces of silver...why thirty? Well, if we look at Zech 11:12 we see the parable of the potter's field.

This story doesn't make sense until we know what happened to the 30 pieces of silver that was given to Judas...more on that later!

There is an amazing prophecy that comes to life in the midst of this great betrayal...God planned everything!
