Betrayal In the Bible
Betrayal In The Bible - By Byron Norrod - July 22, 2023
Today, I would like to talk to you a little bit about betrayal in the Bible. Have you ever been betrayed before? Perhaps as a child, your friend took your toy, or maybe your friend in high school stole your boyfriend or girlfriend. Or perhaps a close friend stabbed you in the back by talking about you behind your back or telling on you.
Maybe a co-worker rival or even a boss stole your promotion. Perhaps somebody published something that you had thought about, written, or preached on something before you had a chance to do it yourself. Something even worse, what if your mate had cheated on you and betrayed you in that fashion?
Today I would like to explore some of the betrayals in the Bible and draw some conclusions. First, I would like to start with a definition from The American Heritage Dictionary (5th edition).
• to give aid or information to an enemy; to commit treason against
• to inform upon or deliver into the hands of an enemy in violation of a trust or an allegiance
• to be false or disloyal to
Let’s start with the most memorable betrayal ever in the Bible. Let’s look at Judas’ betrayal of Jesus Christ.
