Luke 9:44 “Let these words sink down into your ears, for the Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men.”
Jesus wanted His disciples to try and understand what He was telling them. They had, up to that point, not yet understood His purposes. Indeed, they surely knew that He had been at risk of being captured by the authorities before and had escaped the danger. So they may have expected that He would never allow Himself to be taken.
But, He also reveals that it would be by betrayal that this would occur. This was a fulfillment of prophecy. The Messiah would be betrayed, mistreated, and killed.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the Lord Jesus! Thank You for His sacrifice for us! Never can I ever thank You enough Father. Please help us to live to Your glory. May we constantly bring praise to You. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
