Luke 22:2
v. 2: The chief priests and scribes, who were supposed to be holy and learned leaders, plotted to kill Jesus (Luke 22:2 a). They looked for a way to do it quietly, because they feared the people, who were growing more devoted to Jesus and His teaching. Their hearts were filled with hatred, and they sought to use any means, whether force or trickery, to destroy Him.
