48But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

Commentary

Satan, finding himself baffled in his attempts to terrify our Lord Jesus, and so to put him out of the possession of his own soul, betakes himself (according to his usual method) to force and arms, and brings a party into the field to seize him, and Satan was in them. Here is, I. The marking of him by Judas.

— Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on verses 47-53
