“Not at the festival, so that there may not be an uproar among the people.”

“The chief priests and the elders of the people” contrived “gathered in the courtyard of the high priest, who was named Caʹia·phas,” to think of a plausible excuse, before the people, to end Jesus’ perfect life,

since multitudes became his follower, causing these religious leaders much bitterness and strife.

Whereas, Jesus’ sought to prepare his disciples for his tragic, though temporary end:

“You know that two days from now the Passover takes place, and the Son of man will be handed over to be executed on the stake.” Matt.26:1-5.

However, the disciples did not connect with the message he did to them relate. They could not of this horrible thought truly comprehend.

Yet, one Judas, knew of what Jesus did state, since he, with the chief priests, traitorously did unrighteously participate:

“Then one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Is·carʹi·ot, went to the chief priests and said: “What will you give me to betray him to you?”

They stipulated to him 30 silver pieces.

So from then on, he kept looking for a good opportunity to betray him.” Matt. 26:14-16.

Yes, Judas “consented and began looking for a good opportunity to betray him (Jesus) to them

without a crowd around.” Luke 22:6.

Like the ‘original serpent’ ‘Satan’, ‘the father of the lie’, Judas became his follower, along with the chief priests and religious leaders,

comrades

because of sharing in selfish jealousy and hate.

“Then Satan entered into Judas, the one called Is·carʹi·ot, who was numbered among the Twelve,” Luke 22:3.

Shall we show we are not like them,
but are as fruitful as lovely fig trees?

By showing sincere gratitude by our lives and actions… And on April 19th, 2019, with a multitudious throng

We, as said to his disciples:
“Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” Luke 22:19.

In other words: Commemorate.

This will Jah
and His now resurrected King-Son Christ Jesus
totally honor and them gloriously please!*
