Contextual Overview

12 And on the first day of the Unleavened Bread , when they killed the Passover, His disciples said to Him, Where do You desire that going we may prepare that You may eat the Passover? 13 And He sent two of His disciples, and said to them, Go into the city. And you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water. Follow him. 14 And wherever he goes in, say to the housemaster, The Teacher says, Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with My disciples? 15 And he will show you a large upper room, having been spread and made ready. Prepare for us there. 16 And His disciples went out and came into the city and found it as He told them. And they prepared the Passover. 17 And evening having come, He came with the Twelve. 18 And as they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, Truly I say to you, One of you will betray Me, the one eating with Me. 19 And they began to be grieved, and to say to Him one by one, Not at all I, is it ? And another, Not at all I, is it ? 20 But answering, He said to them, It is one from the Twelve, the one dipping in the dish with Me. 21 Truly the Son of Man goes as it has been written concerning Him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It were good for him if that man had never been born.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 20. That dippeth with me in the dish. — In the east, persons never eat together from one dish, except when a strong attachment subsists between two or more persons of the same caste; in such a case one invites another to come and sit by him and eat from the same dish. This custom seems to have existed among the Jews; and the sacred historian mentions this notice of our Lord's, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish, to mark more strongly the perfidy of the character of Judas.
