sought how he might
conveniently deliver
him unto them.

twelve, who was
called Judas Iscariot,
went unto the chief
priests, 15 and said,
What are ye willing
to give me, and I will
deliver him unto you?
And they weighed
unto him thirty pieces
of silver [see Zech.

that time he sought
opportunity to
deliver him unto
them

of the number of the
twelve. 4 And he went
away, and communed
with the chief priests
and captains, how he
might deliver him
unto them.
5 And they
were glad, and
covenanted to give
him money. 6 And he
consented,
and
sought opportunity
to deliver him unto
them 2in the absence
of the multitude.

Jerusalem, Thursdaya afternoon. (A Day of Preparation)

Mark 14:12-16Matt. 26:17-19Luke 22:7-13
12 And on the first
day of unleavened
bread, when they
sacrificed the passover,
his disciples say
unto him, Where wilt
thou that we go and
make ready that thou
mayest eat the passover
[see Ex. 12:18-20]?
13 And he sendeth
two of his disciples,
and saith unto them,

Go into
the city, and there
shall meet you a man
bearing a pitcher of
water: follow him;
14 and wheresoever he
shall enter in, say to
the goodman of the
house, The 1Master
saith, Where is my
guest-chamber, where
I shall eat the passover
with my disciples?
15 And he will himself
shew you a large
upper room furnished
and ready: and
there make ready for
us. 16 And the disciples
went forth, and came
into the city, and
found as he had said
unto them: and they
made ready the
passover.
17 Now on the first
day of unleavened
bread the disciples
came to Jesus,
saying,
Where wilt thou
that we make ready
for thee to eat the
passover? 18 And he
said,

Go into the city
to such a man, and
say unto him,
The
1Master saith, My
time is at hand; I
keep the passover at
thy house with my
disciples.
19 And
the disciples did as
Jesus appointed them;
and they made
ready the passover.
7 And the day of
unleavened bread
came, on which the
passover must be
sacrificed.
8 And he sent
Peter and John, saying,
Go and make ready
for us the passover,
that we may
eat. 9 And they said
unto him, Where wilt
thou that we make
ready? 10 And he said
unto them, Behold,
when ye are entered
into the city, there
shall meet you a man
bearing a pitcher of
water; follow him into
the house whereinto
he goeth. 11 And
ye shall say unto the
goodman of the
house, The 1Master
saith unto thee,
Where is the
guest-chamber, where I
shall eat the passover
with my disciples?
12 And he will shew you
a large upper room
furnished: there make
ready.
13 And they went, and
found as he had said
unto them: and they
made ready the
passover.
