When Jesus had spoken these words, He went forth with His disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which He entered, and His disciples. And Judas also, which betrayed Him, knew the place: for Jesus oftentimes resorted thither with His disciples (John 18:1-2).

And while He yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people (Matthew 26:47). And Judas received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, and cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons (John 18:3).

Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon Him, went forth, and said unto them, “Whom seek ye?”
They answered Him, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
Jesus saith unto them, “I am He.” And Judas also, which betrayed Him, stood with them. As soon then as He had said unto them, “I am He,” they went backward, and fell to the ground (John 18:4-6).

Then asked He them again, “Whom seek ye?”
And they said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
Jesus answered, “I have told you that I am He: if therefore ye seek Me, let these go their way:” that the saying might be fulfilled, which He spake, “Of them which Thou gavest Me have I lost none” (John 18:7-9).

Now he that betrayed Him gave them a sign, saying, “Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is He: hold Him fast, and lead Him away safely” (Mark 14:44). And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, “Hail, Master;” and kissed Him (Matthew 26:49).

And Jesus said unto him, “Friend, wherefore art thou come? Betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?” (Matthew 26:50, Luke 22:48).
When they which were about Him saw what would follow, they said unto Him, “Lord, shall we smite with the sword?” (Luke 22:49). Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus (John 18:10).

Then said Jesus unto Peter, “Put up thy sword into the sheath: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. The cup which My Father hath given Me, shall I not drink it?” (John 18:11, Matthew 26:52). And He touched his ear, and healed him (Luke 22:51).

In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, “Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take Me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on Me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness” (Matthew 26:55, Luke 22:53).
All this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled (Matthew 26:56).

Then all the disciples forsook Him, and fled (Matthew 26:56, Mark 14:50).
