BIBLE STORIES # 46 - In the Garden of Gethsemane

After the Paschal supper, Jesus and his disciples left the house and went to the Garden of Gethsemane. There Jesus asked the disciples:

• I'm mortally sad. Stay with Me! And he went away and began to pray: "My Father!" If possible, save Me from suffering! But if you can not - then let it be as you want.

Returning to the disciples, He saw that they all fell asleep.

"Are you all asleep?" - He asked, - But the time has come! See: here comes the traitor.

At that moment, Judas appeared in the garden. The traitor agreed with the Pharisees that they would seize the one whom he would kiss. Therefore Judas came to Jesus and kissed Him. Armed soldiers immediately rushed forward, surrounded Jesus and led for questioning. Frightened students fled.
