Judas Arranges to Betray Jesus

 

Jewish Leaders Conspire Luke 22:1-3 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching, and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus. They were afraid to seize him openly, because they were afraid of the people. Judas Makes a Deal Luke 22:3-6 Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve. And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. They were delighted and agreed to give him money. Judas consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.
