10And Judas Iscariot, who was one of the Twelve, went away to the high priests in order to hand him over to them. 11And when they heard it, they were glad and promised to give him money. And he was seeking how he might conveniently hand him over.
14Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the high priests 15and said, “What are you willing to give me and I will hand him over to you?” And they weighed out for him thirty pieces of silver. 16And from then on he was looking for an opportunity to hand him over.

To study Mark 14 in a group
1. What it says
What did Jesus do with the bread and the cup at the meal, and what did he say (vv. 22–24)?
2. What it means
Why did Jesus pray in Gethsemane, “not what I want, but what you want” (vv. 32–36)?
3. How I live it
The disciples fell asleep while Jesus prayed (vv. 37–41). How can you stay with someone who is going through a hard time?
