Luke 22:48 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? Betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? - Dost thou attempt to kiss me as a friend, while thou art delivering me up into the hands of my enemies? We need not wonder at all this, as Satan himself had entered into the heart of this traitor, see Luke 22:3; consequently we can expect nothing from him but what is fell, deceitful, and cruel.
