Jesus was betrayed by a friend

Psalm 41:9
Even my close friend, whom I trusted, he who shared my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
(New International Version translation)

Bible passage: Psalm 41:9
Prophet: David
Written: About 1000 BC
In Psalm 41:9, King David wrote a prayer asking for mercy in his last days. In this prayer, which Jews and Christians believe was inspired by God, David wrote about a betrayal at the hand of a close friend with whom he had shared bread. This foreshadowed something that happened years later with Jesus. As explained in Matthew 26:47-50, Jesus was betrayed by Judas, one of the 12 apostles, shortly after Jesus and the apostles had shared bread during the Last Supper. Jesus was crucified by the Romans a short time later.
