Jesus is Arrested, Denied, and Tried - John 18

When Jesus was arrested He was in total control of the situation and His own emotions, yet His disciples scattered in fear. One of them even denied knowing Jesus. While on trial before the Jewish priests and the Roman governor Jesus was calm and confident, yet the angry crowd shouted maliciously for Jesus' death. They even freed a convicted revolutionary in exchange for Jesus' execution. What do these remarkable contrast show us about what's really happening as these events unfold?
