Did David prophesy that Judas will betray Jesus ~ Cross reference of John 13:18 to Psalm 41:10

Jesus says that Judas had to betray him to that the prophesy that David made 1700 years earlier will be fulfilled. Kind of weird but let us go with this. I think the real reason why Jesus was crucified was because of the commotion he created when he came into Jerusalem. The Romans were very alert during the festival times where huge crowds of Jews came to Jerusalem to worship at the temple.

I suspect that they was nervous that Jesus was creating a lot of excitement and that too people were shouting "Blessed is the king of Israel!". Pilate was a very stern prefect and he would not allow anyone to be called the kind of Israel.

So in a way Jesus was already in the radar of the Romans and they would have crucified him just like they did 100,000 Jews in the period they ruled Israel.

Sad part is the gospel writers put the blame on the Jews and for 2000 years Christians have been persecuting Israel for all the wrong reasons. G-d has seen the pain they have suffered but not left their G-d and he has started the restoration of Israel. Hope the awesome day of G-d comes in our time. 

Let us see if Psalm 41 talks about David prophesying about Judas's betrayal of Jesus.
