Mark 14:43-45

Expanded Bible

Jesus Is Arrested^(A)

⁴³ At once, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of ·the twelve apostles [the Twelve], came up. With him were many people carrying swords and clubs who had been sent from the ·leading [^Tchief] priests, the ·teachers of the law [scribes], and the Jewish elders.

⁴⁴ ·Judas [^LThe betrayer] had planned a signal for them, saying, “The man I kiss is Jesus. ·Arrest [Seize] him and guard him while you lead him away.” ⁴⁵ So Judas went straight to Jesus and said, “·Teacher [^LRabbi]!” and kissed him.
