What does the Bible say about betrayal in John 13?

Answered in 1 source

In John 13, Jesus foretells Judas' betrayal, demonstrating His divine knowledge and the fulfillment of Scripture.

In John 13:18-31, Jesus speaks of His impending betrayal by Judas Iscariot, whom He identifies as one of His chosen disciples. This act fulfills the prophecy found in Psalm 41:9, where it states, 'He who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me.' Jesus shares this information not to incite fear in His disciples but to strengthen their faith, indicating that He is fully aware of all that is to transpire. His foreknowledge reassures us of His sovereignty over the events leading to His crucifixion and the fulfillment of salvation history.
