Mary of Magdala page 42 by ric gustafson
Mary watched in horror as the armed mob approached the edge of the grove. As they seized the disciples, Jesus appeared.
" Whom do you seek?".
Several replied loudly ' Jesus of Nazareth".
" I am he". He pointed at his friends. " Let these men go".
Just then, Judas walked up to Jesus. " Teacher". He kissed Jesus's hand.
" Judas". Jesus gave him a sad stare. " You betray the Son of God with a kiss".
" That's the signal". The captain of the guard pointed. " Seize him".
Soldiers grabbed Jesus.
In horror, Mary watched the male disciples flee.
The mob took Jesus away.
Mary ran up to the other female followers. " Judas just told me". Her voice trembled. " They have taken him to the house of Annas".
Jesus's mother spoke up. " We will go with you".
