Verse 24

The Son of Man title here combines Jesus’ messianic and Suffering Servant roles almost equally, as is clear from the context. Likewise Jesus’ "woe" here expressed a combination of compassion and condemnation (cf. Matthew 18:17). Jesus did not identify the Old Testament prophecy that He had in mind. It may have been Isaiah 53:7-9, Daniel 9:26, or a combination of passages such as those dealing with the Passover lamb. The fact that God sovereignly planned for Messiah to die does not mitigate Judas’ human responsibility in betraying Him. Jesus’ death resulted in salvation for many, but it meant personal and eternal ruin for Judas.
