<strong>The</strong> <strong>Book</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong> Chapter Seventeen: <strong>The</strong> life <strong>of</strong> <strong>Jesus</strong> from <strong>the</strong> Gos...<strong>of</strong> Mat<strong>the</strong>w, Mark, Luke, John in easy-to-read, chronological format.<br />
must not happen with you. No, he that is greatest among you, let him be as if he were <strong>the</strong> youngest and he that is leader, let him be as<br />
if he were <strong>the</strong> one who serves. For who is greater, <strong>the</strong> one who sits at <strong>the</strong> table or <strong>the</strong> one who serves? Isn't it <strong>the</strong> one who sits at <strong>the</strong><br />
table? Yet here am I among you as one who serves. Do you understand what I've done to you? You call me Master and Lord and you<br />
speak correctly, for so I am. If I <strong>the</strong>n, <strong>the</strong> Lord and Master have washed your feet, you also should wash one ano<strong>the</strong>r's feet. I have<br />
given you an example so that you should do as I have done to you. I tell you most sincerely, <strong>the</strong> servant is not greater than his master,<br />
nei<strong>the</strong>r is a messenger greater than <strong>the</strong> man who sent him. If you understand <strong>the</strong>se things, happy are you if you do <strong>the</strong>m. I am not<br />
speaking about all <strong>of</strong> you. I know <strong>the</strong> ones I have chosen, but what scripture says must be fulfilled: 'One who eats bread with me has<br />
lifted up his heel against me.' I tell you this now, before it happens, so that when it does happen you may believe that I am He. I tell<br />
you most sincerely, whoever welcomes <strong>the</strong> one I send, welcomes me and he who welcomes, me welcomes <strong>the</strong> one who sent me.<br />
Luke 22:24-27; John 13:2-20<br />

NARRATOR.<br />
Having said this, <strong>Jesus</strong> was troubled in spirit and declared:<br />
JESUS.<br />
I tell you most sincerely, one <strong>of</strong> you who eats with me will betray me. <strong>The</strong> hand <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> man who betrays me is with me on <strong>the</strong> table.<br />
NARRATOR.<br />
<strong>The</strong> disciples looked at one ano<strong>the</strong>r, wondering which one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m he meant. <strong>The</strong>y were greatly distressed and started asking him one<br />
by one:<br />
DISCIPLE 1.<br />
Is it me?<br />
DISCIPLE 2.<br />
Am I <strong>the</strong> one?<br />
JESUS.<br />
It is one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> twelve, <strong>the</strong> one who dips his hand with me in <strong>the</strong> dish, this same one will betray me. <strong>The</strong> Son <strong>of</strong> Man indeed is going<br />
as it was determined, as <strong>the</strong> scriptures say he will, but alas for that man by whom <strong>the</strong> Son <strong>of</strong> Man is betrayed. It would have been<br />
better for that man if he had never been born.<br />
NARRATOR.<br />
<strong>The</strong>n Judas, who was to betray him, asked:<br />
JUDAS.<br />
Rabbi, is it I?<br />
JESUS.<br />
You, have said it!<br />
NARRATOR.<br />
And <strong>the</strong>y began to ask each o<strong>the</strong>r which <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m it could be who was to do this thing. Now <strong>the</strong>re was leaning on <strong>Jesus</strong>' bosom one <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> disciples whom he loved. Simon Peter got <strong>the</strong> attention <strong>of</strong> this disciple so that he could ask <strong>Jesus</strong> who it was he was speaking<br />
about. Leaning back on <strong>Jesus</strong>' breast he said:<br />
JOHN.<br />
Lord, who is it?<br />
JESUS.<br />
It is <strong>the</strong> one to whom I give <strong>the</strong> piece <strong>of</strong> bread that I shall dip in <strong>the</strong> dish.<br />
NARRATOR.<br />
He dipped <strong>the</strong> piece <strong>of</strong> bread in <strong>the</strong> dish and gave it to Judas Iscariot, son <strong>of</strong> Simon. At that instant, after Judas had taken <strong>the</strong> bread,<br />
Satan entered him. <strong>Jesus</strong> <strong>the</strong>n said:<br />
JESUS.<br />
What you are about to do, do quickly.<br />
