He calls them to an examination of conscience putting to test their faithfulness. A deep self analysis and sense of resposnibility towards each other. And trust in each other too. It binds them together all the more.Also God`s will had to be accomplished so he did not want them to stop the betrayer. His leadership shows great humility and total lack of pride. We are here to help each other and collaborate sacrificing ourselves in the name of the Sacrifice he`s about to face for us all. He doesn`t want to cause enmity between the disciples. They have to be one body. And even Judas could have been reintegrated had he not cut himself off by not trusting enough God`s mercy. But maybe his state of panic - was he sent to Purgatory? his was an act of desperation.

Jesus was quoted saying: I am in the midst of you as one who serves. How does this style of leadership differ from others?
Jesus was not afraid to do whatever it was that he asked of his disciples. He lead by example - servitude to others.

If Jesus had told the other disciples who it was, history would have been changed because I feel that the disciples would have killed Peter and then all of history would have changed. It was as it should have been. How God had planned.

The disciples will kill him before the time of his action to fulfill the prophecy of ages.

The two traitors
But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table. The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed! When he says determined I start putting into question my preceding answer regarding Judas: did he have no choice then? also read I think that he finally condemned himself when he killed himself and did not ask for forgiveness ''the Cathechism would say that he was in such a state that he was not in control and so we can hope he was saved and went to Purgatory''. Peter on the other hand cried bitter tears and asked for forgiveness. Also striking the fact that he doesn`t mention his name when talking about the betrayal, but makes very precise references to Peter telling him exactly what will happen. why? to a degree it seems that Peter is more guilty than Judas as he did not stop in front of the signs whereas judas was left freer. I don`t know? how do you see it? and what`s the official explanation? is it to show us the extenct of God`s loving and forgiveness? Peter acted in full knowledge - it was a mortal sin and he was forgiven due to his sincere contrition. He was even the one on whom Jesus founded the Church. Judas stumbled in darkness and Jesus had alerted everyone. On the other hand you can say that Peter acted more in panic whereas Judas was far more calculating in dealing with the scribes. What do you say? very helpful opportunity to reflect on the nature of ours sins.

The Last Supper

The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed. He sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat."
They said to him, "Where do you want us to prepare?"
He said to them, "Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters. Tell the master of the house, 'The Teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?"' He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there."
They went, found things as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover. When the hour had come, he sat down with the twelve apostles. He said to them, "I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer, for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God." He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, "Take this, and share it among yourselves, for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until the Kingdom of God comes."
He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave to them, saying, "This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me." Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you. But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table. The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!"
They began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing. There arose also a contention among them, which of them was considered to be greatest. He said to them, "The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called 'benefactors.' But not so with you. But one who is the greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves. For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn't it he who sits at the table? But I am in the midst of you as one who serves. But you are those who have continued with me in my trials. I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me, that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
The Lord said, "Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat, but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn't fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers."
He said to him, "Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!"
He said, "I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times."
He said to them, "When I sent you out without purse, and wallet, and shoes, did you lack anything?"
They said, "Nothing."
Then he said to them, "But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword. For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: 'He was counted with the lawless.' For that which concerns me has an end."
They said, "Lord, behold, here are two swords."
He said to them, "That is enough."
