026:016 and from that moment he was on the look out for an opportunity
to betray Him.
026:017 On the first day of the Unleavened Bread the disciples came
to Jesus with the question, "Where shall we make preparations
for you to eat the Passover?"
026:018 "Go into the city," He replied, "to a certain man, and tell him,
`The Teacher says, My time is close at hand. It is at your
house that I shall keep the Passover with my disciples.'"
026:019 The disciples did as Jesus directed them, and got the Passover ready.
026:020 When evening came, He was at table with the twelve disciples,
026:021 and the meal was proceeding, when Jesus said, "In solemn truth
I tell you that one of you will betray me."
026:022 Intensely grieved they began one after another to ask Him, "Can it
be I, Master?"
026:023 "The one who has dipped his fingers in the bowl with me,"
He answered, "is the man who will betray me.
026:024 The Son of Man is indeed going as is written concerning Him; but alas for that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It had been a happy thing for that man if he had never been born."
026:025 Then Judas, the disciple who was betraying Him, asked, "Can it be I, Rabbi?" "It is you," He replied.
