The Bible details the betrayal of Jesus by Judas Iscariot in the Gospels, emphasizing the fulfillment of Scripture and the profound nature of Christ's sacrifice.

The betrayal of Jesus by Judas Iscariot is a crucial event recorded in the Gospels, primarily found in Mark 14:43-50. This moment illustrates not only the acts of betrayal but also highlights how those events were foretold in Scripture, fulfilling God's prophetic word. Judas, one of the twelve disciples, used a kiss as a signal to identify Jesus to the soldiers, demonstrating the depth of human treachery and the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy regarding the Messiah's suffering and rejection. As Jesus notes in his response, the Scriptures must be fulfilled, reflecting God's sovereign plan through these events.
