*TEXT: MATTHEW 26:1-5;14-16*
*TOPIC: PLOTTERS OF EVIL*
*MATTHEW 26:1-5;14-16 NIV*
1:When Jesus had finished saying all these things, he said to his disciples,
2:“As you know, the Passover is two days away—and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”
3:Then the chief priests and the elders of the people assembled in the palace of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas,
4:and they schemed to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him.
5:“But not during the festival,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”
14:Then one of the Twelve—the one called Judas Iscariot—went to the chief priests
15:and asked, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver him over to you?” So they counted out for him thirty pieces of silver.
16:From then on Judas watched for an opportunity to hand him over.
*PLOTTERS OF EVIL*
Today's passage is about the evil plot by Caiaphas, the high Priest, and others to arrest and kill Jesus. In fact, Caiaphas served for eighteen years longer than most other high priests.
Could it be due to the long time he was in office, coupled with his good relationship with the Roman Government that he was able to succeed in getting Jesus killed?
In their evil plot, they acted as if they were concerned about the health of the Jewish nation (vs. 5).
Caiaphas masterminded the plot and found a ready tool in the person of Judas Iscariot who was willing to collect anything (thirty pieces of silver) to betray Jesus.
*QUESTION:* What evil plot are you hatching against an innocent person in your office, church or neighbourhood?
*PRAYER:* Dear Lord, I am sorry for plotting evil against others. Have mercy on me and grant me the grace to discontinue my evil plans, in Jesus' name. Amen.
