"Judas and the Last Supper" Print

Inspired by Leonardo da Vinci and his painting "The Last Supper." The magnitude of the divine sacrifice cannot be measured, but a tormenting tremor seizes one's soul when contemplating what lies before and after - betrayal. Betrayal is the secret of an anguished soul. The betrayer nurtures his criminal plans in his heart and carefully conceals them from others. Judas did not reveal his intentions to anyone until his ignominious death. And what transpired in his soul, the Evangelists naturally could not know precisely. The Gospel provides only a brief account of the betrayal, and that is entirely understandable, for the Gospel is the story of our redemption, not the story of Judas' betrayal. For the Evangelists, Judas is only of interest in connection with the sacrificial death of the Savior, not in and of himself. Therefore, the story of Judas' fall will forever remain a mystery. Yet, this mystery has always preoccupied people. Even at the Last Supper, when the Lord warned that one of them would betray Him, the apostles became agitated and each asked himself, "Is it I?" The theme of betrayal has also been addressed by early Christian interpreters, but it has especially resonated in the works of contemporary theologians and philosophers. This is not surprising, as the times are different now. Traitors are honored, while loyalty is not in vogue. It seems that moral values and principles have often lost their significance in today's era, and the actions of betrayers are sometimes even admired or justified. However, despite these changes, the theme of betrayal continues to be of interest as it raises questions about trust, loyalty, and the moral challenges of human existence. In a world where betrayal appears to be commonplace, it is more important than ever to reflect on the meaning of fidelity and integrity.
