Jesus, having prayed fervently, now commands His disciples to rise, indicating readiness and resolve. This moment reflects Jesus' obedience to the Father's will, as seen in His earlier prayer, "Not as I will, but as You will" (<a href="/matthew/26-39.htm">Matthew 26:39</a>). The call to rise signifies a transition from prayer to action, embodying the principle of faith leading to works (<a href="/james/2-17.htm">James 2:17</a>). It also echoes the urgency and determination found in other biblical narratives where God’s people are called to action, such as in <a href="/exodus/14-15.htm">Exodus 14:15</a> when God tells Moses to move forward.<p><b>See, My betrayer is approaching!”</b><br>Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve disciples, is the betrayer, fulfilling the prophecy found in <a href="/psalms/41-9.htm">Psalm 41:9</a>, "Even my close friend, someone I trusted, one who shared my bread, has turned against me." This betrayal is a pivotal moment in the Passion narrative, setting in motion the events leading to Jesus' crucifixion. The approach of Judas with a large crowd armed with swords and clubs (<a href="/matthew/26-47.htm">Matthew 26:47</a>) highlights the tension and gravity of the situation. It underscores the fulfillment of Jesus' earlier predictions of His betrayal (<a href="/matthew/26-21.htm">Matthew 26:21-25</a>) and serves as a reminder of the spiritual battle between light and darkness. The betrayal by a close companion also typifies the suffering servant motif found in <a href="/isaiah/53.htm">Isaiah 53</a>, where the Messiah is depicted as one who is despised and rejected by men.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jesus_christ.htm">Jesus Christ</a></b><br>The central figure in this passage, Jesus is in the Garden of Gethsemane, preparing to face His betrayal and subsequent crucifixion.
