Matthew 27:1-14

  1. What lessons concerning the inevitable judgment upon sin are to be found in the account of the death of Judas?
    Can you see any sense in which we may be tempted to act like Judas in our situation, or is he unique?
  2. Consider the silence of Jesus in these last hours of his life.
    Cf. Luke 23:9. In the light of this, read 1 Pet. 2:21-23 and note the lessons for our own life and witness.
