- Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching.
- The chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might put Him to death; for they were afraid of the people.
- And Satan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, belonging to the number of the twelve.
- And he went away and discussed with the chief priests and officers how he might betray Him to them.
- They were glad and agreed to give him money.
|
- So he consented, and began seeking a good opportunity to betray Him to them apart from the crowd.
- Then came the first day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.
- And Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it."
- They said to Him, "Where do You want us to prepare it?"
- And He said to them, "When you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house that he enters.
|
- "And you shall say to the owner of the house, 'The Teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?"'
- "And he will show you a large, furnished upper room; prepare it there."
- And they left and found everything just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover.
