GospeL Verses ~ John 18:3-14
3 - Judas, gathered a band of soldiers and some officers of the chief priests and Pharisees, and came to Gethsemane with torches, swords and lanterns. 4 Jesus, knowing all that would happen to him, came forward and said, “Who is it you seek?” 5 They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said, “I am he.” Judas, who betrayed him, was standing there also. 6 When Jesus said, “I am he,” they drew back and fell to the ground. 7 So he asked them again, “Who are you seeking?” They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.” 8 Jesus answered, “I told you, I am he. So, if you seek me, let these men go.” 9 This fulfilled the word that he had spoken: “Of those whom you gave me I have not lost one.” 10 Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant, cutting off one of his ears. The servant's name was Malchus. 11 So Jesus said to Peter, “Put away your sword, shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?” [Luke, the Greek doctor, but not one of the twelve - he met Paul later - says Jesus healed the ear.]
12 So the band of soldiers and their captain and the officers of the leaders bound his hands and led him away. 13 First they led him to Annas, the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. 14 It was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it would be expedient that one man should die for the people.
Matthew 26:47-57 (Matthew’s account.)
47 - While Jesus was still speaking, Judas came, who had been 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 you should seize, for that is him.” 49 And he came up to Jesus saying, “Rabbi” and kissed him. 50 Jesus said, “Friend, do what you came to do.” Then they came and laid hands on Him and seized him. 51 And then, one who was with Jesus drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear. 52 Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword away. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword. 53 Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels? 54 But then how should it be fulfilled what must occur, and is written in the Scripture?” (That which will be strong enough to appease and convince eveRy guilty conscience.) 55 Jesus said to them, “Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come out with clubs and swords? Why not arrest me in the Temple? I was there teaching every day. 56 But, all this takes place that the Scriptures of the prophets be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left him and fled (Zech.13:7). 57 And those who had seized Jesus led him to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered.

From New Testament Letters
(In the Order Believed Written)
~ 2 Peter 2:8-17 ~
8 - For that righteous man (Lot) lived among them day after day, feeling tormented over the lawless deeds that he saw and heard. 9 So then, the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, and to keep [tereo - keep, guard, watch, maintain, preserve] unto ‘day’ of judgment (and/the) correction [kolazo - to check, curb, restrain, chastise, correct, punish, properly curtail, prune] 10 especially those promoting the lust of defiling [miasmos - the act of defiling, polluting, corrupting] passion [epithymía - eager for, from epí - focused on and thymós - passionate desire, inordinate desires] and despise lordship. Bold and self willed, they do not tremble as they blaspheme [blasphémeó - to slander, hence to speak lightly or profanely of sacred things, use abusive or scurrilous language about, from blax - sluggish, slow, and phḗmē - reputation, fame, name – properly, refusing to acknowledge good, worthy of respect, hence, to blaspheme which “reverses moral values”-bible hub dot com; to insult] the glorious (one), 11 whereas angels, in being greater in strength and power, do not bring before God a reviling [blasphemos] judgment. 12 These however like non rational [alogos - without reason or logic] animals having been born as creatures of instinct to capture and ruin. Of what they know not of, they blaspheme, which way will come to ruin 13 and will suffer wrong as the wage [misthos - fruit naturally resulting] for the wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel openly. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions, while they feast-with [syneuōchoumenoi - from syn -together, with, and euócheó - to entertain sumptuously] you. 14 Eyes full of unfaithfulness, insatiable for sin, they entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in avarice. Accursed children! 15 Forsaking the right way, they have gone astray. They have followed the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrongdoing, 16 but was rebuked for his own error [paranomia - lawbreaking] by a speechless donkey who spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet's madness. 17 These are waterless springs and mists driven by a storm. For them the gloom [zophos - darkness, murkiness, gloom] of darkness is reserved [tēréō - kept intact]. (As long as there is waywardness, there will be the inner outside of the light darkness and gloom. The waywardness, lawlessness keeps it intact, for it is a fruit. The parable of the rich man and Lazarus portrays - initial - conditions of some during the GWT judgment ‘day’. As does the outside of the vision narrative of Rev.22.)
