Judas' Deadly Night

The wind blew constantly, Judas felt cold, cold outside, cold inside. He had betrayed his love. Could he make atonement? Show some self respect? Will love find out how deep his guilt was? Must he despair? He was truly lost. He sat down against an olive tree A rotten fruit fell. His despair increased. The Bible never mentioned what fruit Adam and Eve ate. Certainly it was not an apple. Biblical studies considered the olive trees as the most predominant in the Mediterranean. It could have been large and sweet. After the fall of Adam and Eve, the olives turned sour and shrank. So Jesus began his Passion in the garden of olives. All this is theoretical. One can believe what he wants.
