Song of Introduction
#175 “Hallelujah, What a Savior!”
Betrayal
Reader 1:
Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives, and his disciples followed him.
On reaching the place, he said to them:
Reader 2:
Sit here while I pray.
Reader 1:
He took Peter, James and John along with him, and he began to be deeply distressed and troubled.
Reader 2:
My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death.
Stay here and keep watch.
Reader 1:
Going a little farther, he fell to the ground and prayed that if possible the hour might pass from him.
Reader 2:
Abba, Father, everything is possible for you.
Take this cup from me.
Yet not what I will, but what you will.
Reader 1:
Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping.
Reader 2:
Simon, are you asleep?
Couldn’t you keep watch for one hour?
Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Reader 1:
Once more he went away and prayed the same thing.
When he came back, he again found the sleeping, because their eyes were heavy.
They did not know what to say to him.
Returning to the third time--
Reader 2:
Are you still sleeping and resting?
Enough!
The hour has come.
Look, the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners.
Rise!
Let us go!
Here comes my betrayer!
Reader 1:
Just as he was speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, appeared.
With him was a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests, the teachers of the law, and the elders.
Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them.
Reader 3:
The one I kiss is the man; arrest him and lead him away under guard.
Reader 1:
Going at once to Jesus, Judas said--
Reader 3:
Rabbi!
Reader 1:
And kissed him.
The men seized Jesus and arrested him.
Then everyone deserted him and fled.

#206 “There Is a Redeemer”
Trial 1
Reader 1:
They took Jesus to the high priest, and all the chief priests, the elders, and the teachers of the law came together.
Peter followed him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest.
There he sat with the guards and warmed himself at the fire.
The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death, but they did not find any.
Many testified against him, but their statements did not agree.
Then some stood up and gave this false testimony against him:
Reader 3:
We heard him say: I will destroy this temple made with human hands and in three days will build another, not made with hands.
Reader 1:
Yet, even then their testimony did not agree.
Then the high priest stood up before them and asked Jesus:
Reader 3:
Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?
Reader 2:
I am, and you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.
Reader 1:
The high priest tore his clothes.
Reader 3:
Why do we need any more witnesses?
You have heard the blasphemy.
What do you think?
Reader 1:
They all condemned him as worthy of death.
Then some began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said:
Reader 3:
Prophesy!
Reader 1:
And the guards took him and beat him.

#178 O Sacred Head, Now Wounded
Trial 2
Reader 1:
Very early in the morning, the chief priests, with the elders, the teachers of the law and the whole Sanhedrin, made their plans.
So they bound Jesus, led him away and handed him over to Pilate, who asked:
Reader 3:
Are you king of the Jews?
Reader 2:
You have said so.
Reader 1:
The chief priests accused him of many things.
So again Pilate asked him:
Reader 3:
Aren’t you going to answer?
