3 dThen eSatan entered into fJudas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve. 4He went away and conferred with the chief priests and gofficers how he might betray him to them. 5And they were glad, and agreed to give him money. 6So he consented and sought an opportunity to hbetray him to them in the absence of a crowd.The Passover with the Disciples
7 iThen came jthe day of Unleavened Bread, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. 8So Jesus ▼▼Greek he
sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat it.” 9They said to him, “Where will you have us prepare it?” 10He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters 11and tell the master of the house, l‘The Teacher says to you, Where is mthe guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ 12And he will show you na large upper room furnished; prepare it there.” 13And they went and found it ojust as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
