Mattityahu 26:54-56

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁵⁴ But how then may the Kitvei Hakodesh be fulfilled that say it must happen thus?

⁵⁵ At that moment, he said to the crowd, Do you have the chutzpah (nerve) to come out, as against a revolutionary, with swords and clubs to arrest me? Daily in the Beis Hamikdash I was sitting saying my shiurim and you did not arrest me.

⁵⁶ But this all happened that the Kitvei Hakodesh of the Neviim might be fulfilled. Then the talmidim deserted Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and fled.
