Lenten Reflection #2
To me, the most troubling element of the last days of Jesus is the story of Judas. Was Judas a villain, a friend who did what Jesus needed done, a conflicted, jealous man? I can never resolve this dilemma for myself. It’s hard to believe that the Romans couldn’t find Jesus on their own after he had been so public. Betrayal and suicide are so brutal. Perhaps it’s a reminder that we are all capable of betraying even our strongest beliefs.
