We have been focusing on Holy Week this month as we prepare for Good Friday and Easter. We have called the series, the Passion of Jesus, or his suffering. Jesus experienced a great deal of suffering during his final week on earth. He says it in Luke 22:15, “I earnestly desire to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. The suffering just kept getting worse. Here, we will examine his betrayal. The Pharisees betrayed Jesus. The crowd turned on him. His own disciples would fall away. Judas would hand him over in the greatest act of betrayal ever experienced, for a trial made up of unsubstantiated charges followed by an execution by suffocation on a cross. It’s the week the whole world turned on God. As necessary as his death was, Jesus still experienced deep betrayal. How did he respond and what do we learn from this?
