Judas's kiss?
The article discusses narrative differences between the Gospels concerning Judas kissing Jesus. Matthew, Mark, and Luke explicitly recount the event, while John omits it, offering another perspective. This difference is seen as complementary, enriching understanding of Jesus' arrest.
Matthew 26.48-50 (King James Version) :Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.King James Version (1769), domaine public — texte : eBible.org
