Preparing the Passover

(Mat 26:1–5, 14–16; Mar 14:1, 2, 10, 11; Jhn 11:45–53 )
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:1 - Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:2 - The chief priests and the experts in the law were trying to find some way to execute Jesus, for they were afraid of the people.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:3 - Then Satan entered Judas, the one called Iscariot, who was one of the twelve.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:4 - He went away and discussed with the chief priests and officers of the temple guard how he might betray Jesus, handing him over to them.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:6 - So Judas agreed and began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesus when no crowd was present.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:7 - Then the day for the feast of Unleavened Bread came, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:8 - Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and prepare the Passover for us to eat."

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:10 - He said to them, "Listen, when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:11 - and tell the owner of the house, 'The Teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?"'
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:12 - Then he will show you a large furnished room upstairs. Make preparations there."
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:13 - So they went and found things just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:17 - Then he took a cup, and after giving thanks he said, "Take this and divide it among yourselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:18 - For I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes."

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:20 - And in the same way he took the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:21 - "But look, the hand of the one who betrays me is with me on the table.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:22 - For the Son of Man is to go just as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!"

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:27 - For who is greater, the one who is seated at the table, or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is seated at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:28 - "You are the ones who have remained with me in my trials.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:29 - Thus I grant to you a kingdom, just as my Father granted to me,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:30 - that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
(Mat 26:31–35; Mar 14:27–31; Jhn 13:36–38 )
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:31 - "Simon, Simon, pay attention! Satan has demanded to have you all, to sift you like wheat,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:32 - but I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. When you have turned back, strengthen your brothers."
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:33 - But Peter said to him, "Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!"
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:34 - Jesus replied, "I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know me."
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:35 - Then Jesus said to them, "When I sent you out with no money bag, or traveler's bag, or sandals, you didn't lack anything, did you?" They replied, "Nothing."

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:55 - When they had made a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:56 - Then a slave girl, seeing him as he sat in the firelight, stared at him and said, "This man was with him too!"
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:57 - But Peter denied it: "Woman, I don't know him!"
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:58 - Then a little later someone else saw him and said, "You are one of them too." But Peter said, "Man, I am not!"
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:59 - And after about an hour still another insisted, "Certainly this man was with him, because he too is a Galilean."

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:67 - and said, "If you are the Christ, tell us." But he said to them, "If I tell you, you will not believe,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:68 - and if I ask you, you will not answer.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:69 - But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God."
