The disciples were irritated when they saw this. They asked, “Why did she waste it like this?
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
It could have been sold for a high price, and the money could have been given to the poor.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Since Jesus knew what was going on, he said to them, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful thing for me.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
You will always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me with you.

From then on, he looked for a chance to betray Jesus.

On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the disciples went to Jesus. They asked, “Where do you want us to prepare the Passover meal for you?”

He said, “Go to a certain man in the city, and tell him that the teacher says, ‘My time is near. I will celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.’”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
The disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.

When evening came, Jesus was at the table with the twelve apostles.

While they were eating, he said, “I can guarantee this truth: One of you is going to betray me.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Feeling deeply hurt, they asked him one by one, “You don’t mean me, do you, Lord?”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Jesus answered, “Someone who has dipped his hand into the bowl with me will betray me.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
The Son of Man is going to die as the Scriptures say he will. But how horrible it will be for that person who betrays the Son of Man. It would have been better for that person if he had never been born.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then Judas, who betrayed him, asked, “You don’t mean me, do you, Rabbi?” “Yes, I do,” Jesus replied.

Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
“But after I am brought back to life, I will go to Galilee ahead of you.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Peter said to him, “Even if everyone else abandons you, I never will.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Jesus replied to Peter, “I can guarantee this truth: Before a rooster crows tonight, you will say three times that you don’t know me.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Peter told him, “Even if I have to die with you, I’ll never say that I don’t know you!” All the other disciples said the same thing.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then Jesus went with the disciples to a place called Gethsemane. He said to them, “Stay here while I go over there and pray.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
He took Peter and Zebedee’s two sons with him. He was beginning to feel deep anguish.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then he said to them, “My anguish is so great that I feel as if I’m dying. Wait here, and stay awake with me.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
After walking a little farther, he quickly bowed with his face to the ground and prayed, “Father, if it’s possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from me. But let your will be done rather than mine.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
When he went back to the disciples, he found them asleep. He said to Peter, “Couldn’t you stay awake with me for one hour?
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Stay awake, and pray that you won’t be tempted. You want to do what’s right, but you’re weak.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then he went away a second time and prayed, “Father, if this cup cannot be taken away unless I drink it, let your will be done.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
He found them asleep again because they couldn’t keep their eyes open.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
After leaving them again, he went away and prayed the same prayer a third time.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then he came back to the disciples and said to them, “You might as well sleep now. The time is near for the Son of Man to be handed over to sinners.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Get up! Let’s go! The one who is betraying me is near.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Just then, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve apostles, arrived. A large crowd carrying swords and clubs was with him. They were from the chief priests and leaders of the people.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Now, the traitor had given them a signal. He said, “The one I kiss is the man you want. Arrest him!”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then Judas quickly stepped up to Jesus and said, “Hello, Rabbi!” and kissed him.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Jesus said to him, “Friend, why are you here?” Then some men came forward, took hold of Jesus, and arrested him.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Suddenly, one of the men with Jesus pulled out his sword and cut off the ear of the chief priest’s servant.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword away! All who use a sword will be killed by a sword.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Don’t you think that I could call on my Father to send more than twelve legions of angels to help me now?
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
How, then, are the Scriptures to be fulfilled that say this must happen?”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
At that time Jesus said to the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest me as if I were a criminal? I used to sit teaching in the temple courtyard every day. But you didn’t arrest me then.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
All of this has happened so that what the prophets have written would come true.” Then all the disciples abandoned him and ran away.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Those who had arrested Jesus took him to Caiaphas, the chief priest, where the experts in Moses’ Teachings and the leaders had gathered together.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Peter followed at a distance until he came to the chief priest’s courtyard. He went inside and sat with the guards to see how this would turn out.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
The chief priests and the whole council were searching for false testimony to use against Jesus in order to execute him.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
But they did not find any, although many came forward with false testimony. At last two men came forward.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
They stated, “This man said, ‘I can tear down God’s temple and rebuild it in three days.’”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
The chief priest stood up and said to Jesus, “Don’t you have any answer to what these men testify against you?”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
But Jesus was silent. Then the chief priest said to him, “Swear an oath in front of the living God and tell us, are you the Messiah, the Son of God?”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Jesus answered him, “Yes, I am. But I alone can guarantee that from now on you will see the Son of Man in the honored position—the one next to God the Father on the heavenly throne. He will be coming on the clouds of heaven.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then the chief priest tore his robes in horror and said, “He has dishonored God! Why do we need any more witnesses? You’ve just heard him dishonor God!
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
What’s your verdict?” They answered, “He deserves the death penalty!”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then they spit in his face, hit him with their fists, and some of them slapped him.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
They said, “You Christ, if you’re a prophet, tell us who hit you.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Peter was sitting in the courtyard. A female servant came to him and said, “You, too, were with Jesus the Galilean.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
But Peter denied it in front of them all by saying, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
As he went to the entrance, another female servant saw him. She told those who were there, “This man was with Jesus from Nazareth.”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Again Peter denied it and swore with an oath, “I don’t know the man!”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
After a little while the men standing there approached Peter and said, “It’s obvious you’re also one of them. Your accent gives you away!”
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Then Peter began to curse and swear with an oath, “I don’t know the man!” Just then a rooster crowed.
Square Portrait Landscape 4K UHD
Peter remembered what Jesus had said: “Before a rooster crows, you will say three times that you don’t know me.” Then Peter went outside and cried bitterly.
