Matthew 26:1-5 ▼

1 AND it came to pass, when Jesus had ended all these words, he said to his disciples:

2 You know that after two days shall be the pasch, and the son of man shall be delivered up to be crucified:

3 Then were gathered together the chief priests and ancients of the people into the court of the high priest, who was called Caiphas:

4 And they consulted together, that by subtilty they might apprehend Jesus, and put him to death.

5 But they said: Not on the festival day, lest perhaps there should be a tumult among the people.
