What? What?
What are you disturbing my nap for?
Jesus just woke up His disciples and told them His betrayer is coming?
Where?
What betrayer?
Okay, I’m listening.
***
While He was still speaking a crowd came up, and the man who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them.
***
Maybe they wanted to invite Jesus to a party.
I am listening.
***
Judas approached Jesus to kiss him…
***
See, I told you.
***
but Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?
***
Oh, it was a sneaky kiss.
Better to hang out with a dog and get slobbery kisses.
***
When Jesus’ followers saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?” And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.
***
That’s telling them.
I wish I’d been there. I really would have given that crowd what for.
Okay, I’ll listen.
***
But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And He touched the man’s ear and healed him.
“Put your sword away!”
***
That man’s about to arrest Jesus and He heals him?
I don’t get it.
***
Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard, and the elders, who had come for Him, “Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come with swords and clubs? Every day I was with you in the temple courts, and you did not lay a hand on me. But this is your hour – when darkness reigns.”
***
Didn’t they have any flashlights?
