- 00:02:25.659 --> 00:02:27.228

- The disciples were heartbroken
- 00:02:33.067 --> 00:02:34.635
- When jesus announced
- 00:02:34.702 --> 00:02:36.203
- That one of them, his friends,
- 00:02:36.270 --> 00:02:38.806
- Would betray him.

- "is it me?
- 00:02:48.816 --> 00:02:50.150

- John leaned over to jesus
- 00:02:57.424 --> 00:02:59.093

- "who is it that will
- 00:03:00.761 --> 00:03:02.096
- Betray you, rabbi?"
- 00:03:02.162 --> 00:03:04.131
- His answer was simple,
- 00:03:04.198 --> 00:03:07.601
- "the one who dips his bread
- 00:03:07.668 --> 00:03:09.103
- Into the bowl after i do."
- 00:03:09.169 --> 00:03:11.939

- 00:03:12.006 --> 00:03:20.814
- A hand reached across
- 00:03:20.881 --> 00:03:21.882
- The table and dipped
- 00:03:21.949 --> 00:03:23.317
- Into the bowl.
- 00:03:23.384 --> 00:03:24.885
- The hand belonged
- 00:03:24.952 --> 00:03:25.619
- To judas iscariot.
- 00:03:25.686 --> 00:03:28.055

- As to where he was going,
- 00:03:36.330 --> 00:03:38.265
- And no one else
- 00:03:38.332 --> 00:03:39.266
- Questioned his absence.
- 00:03:39.333 --> 00:03:41.001

- 00:03:43.237 --> 00:03:45.005
- And john to follow him
- 00:03:45.072 --> 00:03:46.307

- Where they would keep watch
- 00:03:48.309 --> 00:03:49.376
- As he went to pray.
- 00:03:49.443 --> 00:03:51.478

- He walked through the garden,
- 00:04:09.029 --> 00:04:10.531
- And eventually fell
- 00:04:10.597 --> 00:04:11.598
