Then the chief priests and the elders of the
people assembled in the palace of the high
priest, whose name was Caiaphas, and they
schemed to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him. (Matthew,
26: 3-4)
The Gospel also describes the situation of
the disciples who accepted all kinds of risks for
the sake of God:
"I tell you the truth," Jesus replied, "no one who has left
home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or
fields for me [for the approval of God] and the Gospel [God's
commandments] will fail to receive a hundred times as much in
this present age (homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and
fields—and with them, persecutions) and in the age to come,
eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last
first." (Mark, 10:29-31)
[Jesus said:] And everyone who has left houses or brothers
or sisters or father or mother or wife or
children or fields for my sake [for
the approval of God] will receive
a hundred times as much and
will inherit eternal life. But
many who are first will be last,
and many who are last will be
first. (Matthew 19:30-31)
