In our culture today, a kiss might be associated with family love, or even romance. But a kiss in the culture of Israel at the time was a common greeting — a simple expression of respect and brotherly love (Luke 7:45; Romans 16:16; 1 Corinthians 16:20; 2 Corinthians 13:12; 1 Thessalonians 5:26; 1 Peter 5:14).

According to the apostle John, Jesus informed His disciples during the “Last Supper” that one of them would betray him. Likely shocked, they asked Jesus who it would be. Luke 22:3 and John 13:27tell us Satan then “entered” Judas. Judas may have already hatched his wicked plan, but Satan gave the final push. Some suggest this entering by Satan was a...
As already noted, Judas had a special role during Jesus’ ministry. He took charge of the finances, their “common purse.” Some theologians suggest Jesus’ choice to make Judas the treasurer was ironic since Judas was an immoral man — a thief.

With great regret, he tried to return the 30 silver coins to the chief priests and elders. “I have sinned,” he said, “for I have betrayed in...
The most important takeaway from this passage is how crucial it is to be sure of one’s salvation. Many professing Christians may very well be on their way to hell. Jesus warned about this in Matthew 7:21-23. Professing to be a Christian is not the same as being found “in Christ.” People can practice religion but still not know Jesus. Salvation is o...

Aug 26, 2022 · In Luke 22:3, we see that Satan entered into Judas before Judas went to see the chief priests and set things up to betray Jesus.
