Judas Agrees to Betray Christ

Matt. 26:1–5, 14–16; Mark 14:1, 2, 10, 11

22 Now athe Feast of Unleavened Bread drew near, which is called Passover. And bthe chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill Him, for they feared the people.

cThen Satan entered Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered among the dtwelve. So he went his way and conferred with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him to them. And they were glad, and eagreed to give him money. So he promised and sought opportunity to fbetray Him to them in the absence of the multitude.

About The New King James Version

The New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study.
