  <title>Matthew Week 147 (Chapter 26)</title>
  <description>    Matthew Week 147             2 Corinthians 5:21 NASB 95  &amp;amp;nbsp;  21 He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  1 Peter 2:24 NASB95  &amp;amp;nbsp;  24 and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Galatians 3:13 NASB95  &amp;amp;nbsp;  13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”—  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Matthew 26:38a ESV  &amp;amp;nbsp;  38 Then he said to them, “My soul is very sorrowful, even to death;…  &amp;amp;nbsp;      &amp;amp;nbsp;      &amp;amp;nbsp;  “Don’t you know I have wild animals at my disposal? I will unleash them immediately upon you if you don’t change your mind”  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  “Well unleash them, who ever heard of repenting from what is good to what is evil?”  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  “Since wild animals don’t seem to scare you, know here and now I will have you burned alive if you do not denounce Christ”  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  “You threaten me with a mere fire that burns for an hour and then goes out. Haven’t you heard of the fire of coming judgement and the eternal punishment reserved for the ungodly? Why do you keep delaying, do whatever you want with me.”  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  “leave me as I am. The one who gives me strength to endure fire will also enable me to remain motionless against the stake without having to be secured.”-“Letter from the Church of Smyrna” – David Bercot: Will the Real Heretics Please Stand, p. 3-4  &amp;amp;nbsp;      &amp;amp;nbsp;      &amp;amp;nbsp;  “Suffer me to become food for the wild beasts, through whose instrumentality it will be granted me to attain to God. I am the wheat of God, and let me be ground by the teeth of the wild beasts, that I may be found the pure bread of Christ.&amp;quot; The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church, edited by F. L. Cross and E. A. Livingstone. Oxford, 1997.  &amp;amp;nbsp;      &amp;amp;nbsp;      &amp;amp;nbsp;  2 Samuel 15:23 ESV  &amp;amp;nbsp;  23 And all the land wept aloud as all the people passed by, and the king crossed the brook Kidron, and all the people passed on toward the wilderness.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Psalm 55:20-21 ESV  &amp;amp;nbsp;  20 My companion stretched out his hand against his friends;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  he violated his covenant.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  21 His speech was smooth as butter,  &amp;amp;nbsp;  yet war was in his heart;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  his words were softer than oil,  &amp;amp;nbsp;  yet they were drawn swords.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Matthew 26:47-49 ESV  &amp;amp;nbsp;  47 While he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the elders of the people. 48 Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man; seize him.” 49 And he came up to Jesus at once and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” And he kissed him.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  John 18:3 NASB95  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Judas then, having received the Roman cohort and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns and torches and weapons  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  John 18:4-8 ESV  &amp;amp;nbsp;  4 Then Jesus, knowing all that would happen to him, came forward and said to them, “Whom do you seek?” 5 They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am he.” Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them. 6 When Jesus said to them, “I am he,” they drew back and fell to the ground. 7 So he asked them again, “Whom do you seek?” And they said, “Jesus of Nazareth.” 8 Jesus answered, “I told you that I am he. So, if you seek me, let these men go.”  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  John 8:56-59 ESV  &amp;amp;nbsp;  56 Your father Abraham rejoiced that he would see my day. He saw it and was glad.” 57 So the Jews said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?” 58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.”59 So they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Matthew 26:50-51 ESV  &amp;amp;nbsp;  50 Jesus said to him, “Friend, do what you came to do.” Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him. 51 And behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Luke 22:48 ESV  &amp;amp;nbsp;  48 …“Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Mark 14:47 ESV 47 But one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  Luke 22:50 ESV 50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  John 18:10a ESV 10 Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant and cut off his right ear.  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;  &amp;amp;nbsp;           </description>
