Jesus continues the discussions of His impending beytrayal, death and departure with His followers. He uses part of the Passover meal to remind those dining with Him of the great deliverance that He will accomplish in less than 24 hours. Imbedded in that teaching is a promise that He will be successful, for He will partake with them again.
Jesus then travels to the Garden of Gethsemane, a favored place of His, to pray. He invites His followers to join with Him in this endeavor; but they are unable to physically remain alert. While Jesus concludes His prayer time, Judas arrives with a contingent of soldiers and Jesus is betrayed and arrested.
