Luke 22:1-8 ▼

1 Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching.

2 And the chief priests and the scribes were trying to find a way to put Him to death, since they were afraid of the people.

3 And Satan entered Judas, the one called Iscariot, who belonged to the number of the twelve.

4 And he left and discussed with the chief priests and officers how he was to betray Him to them.

5 And they were delighted, and agreed to give him money.

6 And so he consented, and began looking for a good opportunity to betray Him to them away from the crowd.

7 Now the first day of Unleavened Bread came, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.

8 And so Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it.”
