And as they did eat, he said,
Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
All Commentaries on Matthew 26:21 Go To Matthew 26
John Chrysostom
AD 407
And before the supper, He had even washed his feet. And see how He spares the traitor. For He said not, such a one shall betray me; but, one of you, so as again to give him power of repentance by concealment. And He chooses to alarm all, for the sake of saving this man. Of you, the twelve, says He, that are everywhere present with me, whose feet I washed, to whom I promised so many things.
