Answer 1

Peace like a River ...

How about allusions:
Judas, the disciple of Jesus who betrayed him, leading to his execution
Brutus, the friend of Julius Ceaser who betrayed him, leading to his stabbing on the steps of the Roman senate on the Ides of March, March 15th;
Benedict Arnold was an American officer who switched sides during the American Revolution and became an officer for the British.
