Scripture Passage Taken from Luke 22: 39 -46

T hen going out he went, as was his custom, to the Mount of


Olives, and the disciples followed him. When he arrived at
the place he said to them, "Pray that you may not undergo
the test.“ After withdrawing about a stone's throw from them
and kneeling, he prayed, saying, "Father, if you are willing,
take this cup away from me; still, not my will but yours be
done.“ (And to strengthen him an angel from heaven
appeared to him. He was in such agony and he prayed so
fervently that his sweat became like drops of blood falling on
the ground.) When he rose from prayer and returned to his
disciples, he found them sleeping from grief. He said to them,
"Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you may not
undergo the test."

T HE WORD OF THE LORD.

have said so. But I tell you: From now on you will see 'the
Son of Man seated at the right hand of the Power' and

own nation and the chief priests handed you over to me.

not belong to this world

9
If my kingdom did belong to this world, my attendants
(would) be fighting to keep me from being handed over

Herod was very glad to see Jesus; he had been


wanting to see him for a long time, for he had

but he gave him no answer. The chief priests and

P ilate said to them, "Then what shall I do with Jesus called


Messiah?" They all said, "Let him be crucified!“ But he said,

not succeeding at all, but that a riot was breaking out instead,
he took water and washed his hands in the sight of the crowd,
saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood. Look to it
yourselves."And the whole people said in reply, "His blood be
upon us and upon our children."Then he released Barabbas
