"Jesus, seeing that to antagonize was but to harden, refrained from direct conflict. The narrowing selfishness of Judas’ life, Christ sought to heal through contact with His own self-sacrificing love. In His teaching He unfolded principles that struck at the root of the disciple's self-centered ambitions. Lesson after lesson was thus given, and many a time Judas realized that his character had been portrayed, and his sin pointed out; but he would not yield. Ed 92.1"
"But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. For the Son of man is not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them. And they went to another village."
Both passages highlight Jesus' approach of not engaging in direct conflict and instead focusing on love and salvation. In Luke 9:55-56, Jesus rebukes his disciples for wanting to call down fire on a Samaritan village, emphasizing his mission to save lives. Similarly, the EGW passage describes Jesus' efforts to heal Judas through love rather than direct confrontation.
"Mercy's pleading resisted, the impulse of evil bore final sway. Judas, angered at an implied rebuke and made desperate by the disappointment of his ambitious dreams, surrendered his soul to the demon of greed and determined upon the betrayal of his Master. From the Passover chamber, the joy of Christ's presence, and the light of immortal hope, he went forth to his evil work—into the outer darkness, where hope was not. Ed 92.2"
"And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly."
Both passages describe Judas's betrayal as being influenced by evil and leading him into darkness. The phrase 'Satan entered into him' in John 13:27 is paralleled by EGW's description of Judas surrendering his soul to 'the demon of greed' and going 'into the outer darkness.'
"“Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray Him.” John 6:64 . Yet, knowing all, He had withheld no pleading of mercy or gift of love. Ed 92.3"
"But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him."
Ellen White directly references John 6:64 in this passage.
"Seeing the danger of Judas, He had brought him close to Himself, within the inner circle of His chosen and trusted disciples. Day after day, when the burden lay heaviest upon His own heart, He had borne the pain of continual contact with that stubborn, suspicious, brooding spirit; He had witnessed and labored to counteract among His disciples that continuous, secret, and subtle antagonism. And all this that no possible saving influence might be lacking to that imperiled soul! Ed 92.4"
"Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve."
The EGW passage elaborates on the spiritual battle surrounding Judas, which is only hinted at in Luke 22:3. While the verse states Satan entered Judas, EGW expands on Jesus' efforts to prevent this, showing a thematic connection.
