The Last Supper: Judas dipping his hand in the dish
18 "I am not referring to all of you; I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the scripture:
'He who shares
my bread has
lifted up his
heel against me.'
19 "I am telling you now before it
happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am He.
20 I tell you the truth, whoever accepts
anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me."
21 After he had said
this, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified, "I tell you the truth, one of
you is going to betray me."
22 His disciples stared at one another, at a loss to know which of them he meant. 23 One of them, the disciple whom Jesus loved, was reclining next to him. 24 Simon Peter motioned to this disciple and said, "Ask him which one he means."
25 Leaning back against Jesus, he asked him, "Lord, who is it?"
26 Jesus answered, "It is the one to
whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish." Then,
dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, son of Simon.
27 As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan
entered into him. "What you are about to do, do quickly," Jesus told him.
John 13:18-27
