Go deeper into the Easter narrative with Jeff Dixon’s “Easter Egg Hunt.” In the Garden of Gethsemane, Judas didn’t just betray Jesus with a kiss; he betrayed Him with a word: “Rabbi.” Unpack why this specific title reveals Judas’ “fatal flaw” – his failure to see Jesus as more than a teacher. Understand the tragedy of Judas’ limited perspective and the vital importance of acknowledging Jesus fully as Lord and Savior, a challenge that echoes even today.
