Though the murderous throng were surprised and awed by what they had seen and felt, their assurance and hardihood returned as they saw the boldness of Judas in touching the person of Him whom they had so recently seen glorified. They now laid violent hands upon Jesus, and proceeded to bind those precious hands that had ever been employed in doing good. {3SP 104.1}

Selv om morderskaren blev forbavset og forfærdet ved det, som de så, så vendte deres mod og forhærdelse tilbage, da de så Judas' dristighed, idet han rørte ved ham, som de så nylig havde set omgivet af herlighed. De lagde nu hænder på Jesus med vold og gjorde sig rede til at binde de dyrebare hænder, som altid havde været beskæftiget med at gøre godt.
