Mat 26:22 | MHM | STEP | v. 22 : The disciples were very sad when they heard this (Matthew 26:22 ). They were shocked their Master would be betrayed, and even more upset that it would be by one of them. Each wondered if he might be the betrayer, saying, “Lord, is it I?” Even though they did not think they could do such a thing, they were honest about their own weakness. It is wise for us to be humble and search our hearts, especially before communion (2 Corinthians 11:29; 2 Kings 8:13 ).
