November 13

Final Week -- Tuesday Afternoon -- Matthew 26:1-5, 14-16; Mark 14:1-2, 10-11; Luke 22:1-6; Final Week -- Wednesday -- Luke 21:37-38, 22:7-13; John 12:37-50; Matthew 26:17-19; Mark 14:12-16

What did Judas know?  Did he know he was condemning Christ to death...or just arrest?  Did he act on his own or did the devil enter and control him?  Or had he given himself up to evil so completely that he already ceded his will?  

Jesus prepares for His death...by teaching.  Every day He is teaching in the Temple and every night he teaches on the Mount of Olives.  And then there is this startling verse:  "Even after Jesus had done all these miraculous signs in their presence, they still would not believe in Him." [John 12:37] They saw the signs and still didn't believe.  We see the signs and still don't believe.
