John 19:14

14Now it was the preparation day of the Passover, about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, “Behold your king.”
19:14 The parasceve of the pasch: That is, the day before the paschal sabbath. The eve of every sabbath was called the parasceve, or day of preparation. But this was the eve of a high sabbath, viz., that which fell in the paschal week.(Challoner)
