The Wednesday before Holy Thursday has been labeled "Spy Wednesday" because of the plotting and treachery of Judas with the Pharisees to betray Jesus. Not only was the physical suffering that Jesus endured extreme, but the venality of one of his own chosen Twelve no doubt added to the pain. How often are we "betrayed" by colleagues or "friends", who behind our backs tear us down or dismiss us as a nuisance? Yet, with Jesus we can say,"
"This I know, that God is on my side...
in God I trust; I shall not fear:
what can mortal ma do to me?" (Ps 56: 13)
And like him, we can forgive. "Father, forgive them. They know not what they do." (Lk 23: 14).
