It was a dark moment on a dark night. Jesus was in the garden of Gethsemane with a small group of disciples. He had asked them to watch with him, but they fell asleep while he anguished in prayer. He asked the Father, if it was possible, that the cup could pass from him. After asking the third time, he was strengthened. Then Jesus got up and went to face the arresting party he knew was on its way.

Jesus also knew who would be leading them. Yes, it was Judas. He approached, hailing Jesus: "Greetings, Rabbi!" He came closer and kissed him. It was the sign he had given the chief priests and elders. The one he kissed was the one they were to seize. After Jesus subdued a brief skirmish initiated by a disciple, the arrest was made and Jesus was led away to an evening and morning of trial, abuse, mockery and finally crucifixion.
