The first scene in Luke 22 sets the stage for the rest of the chapter, detailing Judas's conspiracy to betray Jesus during the Passover. The Jewish leaders wanted to kill Jesus, but feared the people's reaction. However, Jesus knew the details of His death, as foretold in the Old Testament.
Judas, one of the twelve disciples, is portrayed as a thief with an unrestrained attraction to money and a nationalistic obsession for Israel. He betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of silver, agreeing to become a witness against Christ in court.
The story of Judas serves as a mirror to our own lives, reminding us that it's possible to appear to walk with Christ while concealing secret sin, to associate with Christians without accepting Christ, and to withdraw from fellowship with God because of what He's withholding.
We have two options: follow Judas's path of betrayal, or trust in God's promises and seek forgiveness for our sins. The problem isn't just Judas; it's Judas and us.
