Mark 14:20 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:20

Mark 14:20 In-Context

18 While they were at the table eating, Jesus said, "I can guarantee this truth: One of you is going to betray me, one who is eating with me!"
19 Feeling hurt, they asked him one by one, "You don't mean me, do you?"
20 He said to them, "It's one of you twelve, someone dipping his hand into the bowl with me.
21 The Son of Man is going to die as the Scriptures say he will. But how horrible it will be for that person who betrays the Son of Man! It would have been better for that person if he had never been born."
22 While they were eating, Jesus took bread and blessed it. He broke the bread, gave it to them, and said, "Take this. This is my body."
