vs 14: Says "Then..." Judas agrees to betray Jesus. I wonder what set him off. Was it Mary anointing Jesus, was it Jesus' response in praising Mary, was it the spirt, was it something totaly different? I wonder.
Vs 31: Yet another prophecy fulfilled that Jesus (If he were a false messiah) would have had no control over.
Vs 37 & 38: I had a chance to look up the meanings of some of these words. vs.37 "Sorrowful and troubled": Means heavy and deeply depressed. vs. 38 "Overwhelmed with sorrow" means Great emptiness and desire to flee. This is probably about the time the spirit of God left him. It was the first time ever Jesus was not with the Father in spirit. God the Father could not have anything to do with him at this time due to the sin of the world being laid upon him. Amazing that even Jesus had a desire to flee. Even more amazing that he didn't flee. Praise God!!
I have a note I wrote in the margins (Probably from an earlier teaching): If the Father had already left Jesus, why did he still pray? Answer: He didn't see the joy (or light at the end of the tunnel)
vs65: It was illegal for the high priest to tear his clothes!! I have a list of ALL the laws that were broken during Jesus' trial. I'll make you a copy. It's fascinating!
