[Holy Week]: #15; Denials Predicted

Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made
to stumble because of Me this night, for it is written:
     'I will strike the Shepherd,
     And the sheep of the flock will be
          scattered.'

But after I have been raised, I will go before you to
Galilee." Peter answered and said to Him, "Even if
all are made to stumble because of You, I will never
be made to stumble." Jesus said to him, "Assuredly,
I say to you that this night, before the rooster crows,
you will deny Me three times." Peter said to Him,
"Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You!"
    And so said all the disciples.

Matthew 26:31-35
