Jesus Christ was arrested by the Temple guard under the direction of the High Priest. What a conflict! Remember that as a boy Jesus had called the Temple His Father’s house, and the very role of the High Priest pointed to the reality of the work of Jesus Christ! What an insult to Jesus, to be rejected by those He came to save. Nevertheless, Jesus consented to this conflict so that His work would be completed. He knew what had to be done. He knew that He was paying the cost of sin, giving His life for ours, fulfilling all the Old Testament prophecies of the New Covenant. Even still, this would have been tremendously difficult. Even for the disciples who
had to watch it all go down. This proved too much for Peter, who tried to defend Jesus violently. In God’s great mercy, Jesus handles it all with amazing grace. This was not a problem that the disciples could solve, only Jesus Christ could.
