Betrayal and Arrest

14:43 Right away, while Jesus59 was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived.60 With him came a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and experts in the law61 and elders. 14:44 (Now the betrayer62 had given them a sign, saying, “The one I kiss is the man. Arrest him and lead him away under guard.”)63 14:45 When Judas64 arrived, he went up to Jesus65 immediately and said, “Rabbi!” and kissed66 him. 14:46 Then they took hold of him67 and arrested him. 14:47 One of the bystanders drew his sword and struck the high priest’s slave,68 cutting off his ear. 14:48 Jesus said to them, “Have you come with swords and clubs to arrest me like you would an outlaw?69 14:49 Day after day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts, yet70 you did not arrest me. But this has happened so that71 the scriptures would be fulfilled.” 14:50 Then72 all the disciples73 left him and fled. 14:51 A young man was following him, wearing only a linen cloth. They tried to arrest him, 14:52 but he ran off naked,74 leaving his linen cloth behind.
