Luke 22:47-48
47 And while He was still speaking, behold, a multitude; and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss Him. 48 But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”
Mark 14:44 Now His betrayer had given them a signal, saying, “Whomever I kiss, He is the One; seize Him and lead Him away safely.”
Instead of a kiss of greeting, the betrayer used a kiss to identify Jesus to be arrested, tortured, and killed on a cross. So we also betray Him as we deny before others and seem to agree with their feelings to Christ by not speaking up when it is needed. Do we betray with a kiss, or greet openly as our Savior Lord?
