Matthew 26

Clinging to a Counterfeit Cross
Introduction

1  Christ foretells his own death.
3  The rulers conspire against him.
6  The woman anoints his feet.
14  Judas bargains to betray him.
17  Christ eats the passover;
26  institutes his holy supper;
30  foretells the desertion of his disciples, and Peter's denial;
36  prays in the garden;
47  and being betrayed by a kiss,
57  is carried to Caiaphas,
69  and denied of Peter.
