On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread This phrase marks a significant moment in the Jewish calendar, known as the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is closely associated with Passover. The Greek term used here is "τῇ πρώτῃ τῶν ἀζύμων" (tē prōtē tōn azymōn), indicating the beginning of a week-long festival. Historically, this feast commemorates the Israelites' exodus from Egypt, where they left in haste and did not have time to let their bread rise. This context is crucial as it sets the stage for the Last Supper, which Jesus will transform into a new covenant meal. Theologically, this feast symbolizes purity and separation from sin, as leaven often represents sin in Scripture. the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?” Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?--Our Lord had passed each night since His entry at Bethany (probably in the house of Lazarus or Simon the leper), or in the garden of Gethsemane (John 18:1), but the Paschal lamb was to be slain and eaten in Jerusalem, and therefore special preparations were needed. Once before, and probably once only (John 2:13), had the disciples kept that feast with Him in the Holy City. Were they expecting, as they asked the question, that this feast was to be the chosen and, as it might well seem, appropriate time for the victorious manifestation of the Kingdom? We learn from St. Luke (Luke 22:7) that the two who were sent were Peter and John. Verses 17-19. - Preparation for the Paschal Sapper. (Mark 14:12-16; Luke 22:7-13.) Verse 17. - The first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread; literally, on the first day of Unleavened Bread. We have arrived at the Thursday in the Holy Week, Nisan 13. Wednesday had been spent in retirement at Bethany, and no acts or sayings of Christ on that day are recorded. The festival actually began at sunset of the 14th which was called the day of preparation, because the lambs for the feast were slain in the afternoon of that day, preparatory to their being eaten before the morning of the 15th. Domestic preparation, involving the removal of all leaven from houses and the use of unleavened bread, began on the 13th; hence this was considered at this era "the first day of the Unleavened." Came to Jesus. As the Master of the family, who had the ordering of all the details of the Paschal celebration. They did not know the mind of Jesus on the subject, and desired his directions as in former years. Bethany was considered as Jerusalem for the purposes of the solemn meal, and the apostles thought that preparation was to be made at some house in that village. Prepare for thee to eat the Passover. The preparations were numerous: a proper room had to be found and swept and carefully cleansed from every particle of leaven; tables and couches had to be arranged, lights to be supplied, the lamb and all other necessaries (e.g. bread, wine, bitter herbs) provided. All these preparations took much time, so it was doubtless in the early morning that the disciples applied to our Lord. When they spoke of eating the Passover, they doubtless supposed that Christ meant in due course to celebrate the regular Paschal supper on the appointed day, i.e. on the evening of Friday. But his intentions were different from what they expected.Parallel Commentaries ... Greek On theΤῇ (Tē) Article - Dative Feminine Singular Strong's 3588: The, the definite article.
