The identity of the traitor

We are on the second day of the Holy Week. Today's gospel has fast forwarded a bit and tells us about the Last Supper our Lord ate with his disciples. While they were eating, Jesus announced that one of them would betray him. The 4 gospels describe, each in its way, how the identity of the traitor was revealed. Let's start with Mark.
He said to them, "It is one of the twelve, one who is dipping bread into the dish with me.
For the Son of man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born." (Mark 14:20-21) Mark does not identify Judas. He continues to describe the establishment of the Holy Eucharist. Judas must have eaten Christ's body and drunk his blood before he left together with the whole group. Matthew made amendment to Mark.
He answered, "He who has dipped his hand in the dish with me, will betray me.
The Son of man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born."
Judas, who betrayed him, said, "Is it I, Master?" He said to him, "You have said so." (Matthew 26:23-25) The identity of the traitor is revealed. Then Matthew follows Mark to describe the establishment of the Holy Eucharist. All of them, including Judas, partook the Holy Communion before they left for Mount Olives.
Luke took a different line. While Jesus was establishing the Holy Eucharist, he announced that someone would betray him.
And likewise (he took) the cup after supper, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.
But behold the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.
For the Son of man goes as it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!" (Luke 22:20-22) Again, Judas shared the Holy Communion with the rest of the disciples.
During supper, John tells us how Jesus rose and washed the feet of all his disciples, including Judas (John 13:4-5). Then he taught them to wash each others' feet, to serve and love each other.
If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.
For I have given you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you (John 13:14-15).
Then Jesus was troubled in spirit and announced that one of them would betray him. John, the beloved disciple, was close to Jesus and Peter told him to find out from Jesus who the traitor was.
Jesus answered, "It is he to whom I shall give this morsel when I have dipped it." So when he had dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
Then after the morsel, Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him, "What you are going to do, do quickly." (John 13:26-27) After receiving the morsel, Judas left. The establishment of the Holy Eucharist is not recorded in John.
Paul speaks well in his letter to the Romans.
While we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
Why, one will hardly die for a righteous man -- though perhaps for a good man one will dare even to die.
But God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us (Romans 5:6-8).

My Lord, Your great love is shown in how You treated Judas. You love each and everyone of us, sinners. You wash the feet, not just of saints, but of sinners as well. You are willing to give Your precious body and blood to us, even to us sinners. You do not consider it a waste. How amazing Your love and Your patience to us is. May we respond in kind and do not allow Your love to go forth in vain. May we receive Your Holy Eucharist in worthy manners. May Your love rekindle a new life in us. Amen.
