Matthew 26:15

Overview - Matthew 26
Christ foretells his own death.
The rulers conspire against him.
The woman anoints his feet.

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.
