{Mk 14:12-17 & Mt 26:17-20 & Lk 22:7-18, 24-30 Bethany to Jerusalem Thurs. Evening.}


22:7 And the day of unleavened bread came in which the Passover ought to be sacrificed.

22:9 And they said to him, Where do you will that we prepare it?


22:10 And he said to them Behold, when you* have entered into the city, a man bearing a pitcher of water will meet you* there; follow him into the house where he goes.

22:11 And you* will say to the householder, The Teacher says to you, Where is the guestroom, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?

22:12 And he will show you* a big furnished upper room. Prepare it there.

22:13 And they went and found just-as he had said to them and they prepared the Passover.


22:14 And when the hour came*, he leaned-back and the twelve apostles with him.

22:15 And he said to them, I have desired, with a great desire, to eat this Passover with you* before I suffer;

22:16 for* I say to you*, I may never* eat from it anymore, until it should be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

{Mk 14:18-21, 27-31 & Mt 26:21-25, 31-35 & Lk 22:21-23, 31-38 & Jn 13:21-38.}


22:21 However behold, the hand of him who is giving me up is with me at the table.

22:22 And the Son of Man indeed is going, according to what has been determined; however woe to that man through whom he is given up!

22:23 And they began to debate together with themselves, who then it might be out of them who was about to do this thing.


22:24 And there happened to be also contention among them, which of them is thought to be the greater.

22:25 And he said to them, The kings of the Gentiles have lordship over them, and those who have authority over them are called benefactors.

22:26 But you* will not be so, but he who is the greater among you*, let him become like the younger, and he who is leader, as he who is serving.

22:27 For* which is greater, he who reclines at the meal or he who is serving? Is it not he who reclines? But I am in your* midst like he who serves.

22:28 But you* are those who have remained with me in my temptations;

22:29 and I covenant to you*, just-as my father covenanted to me a kingdom,

22:30 that* you* may eat and may drink upon my table in my kingdom, and you* will sit upon thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.


22:31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, the Adversary asked for you*, to sift you * like wheat.

22:32 But I besought concerning you, that* your faith may not fail, and when you have turned again, establish your brethren.


22:33 And he said to him, Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death.


22:34 And he said, I tell you, Peter, the rooster may never* crow today, before you will deny knowing me three times.


22:35 And he said to them, When I sent you* forth without money-bag and knapsack and shoes, you* did not lack anything, did you*?
And they said, Nothing.


22:36 Therefore he said to them, But now, he who has a money-bag, let him take it and likewise a knapsack, and he who has no sword, he will sell his garment and buy one.

22:37 For* I say to you* that it is essential for this to still be accomplished in me which has been written, ‘And he was counted with the lawless; for* the things concerning me must have an end. ' {Is. 53:12}


22:38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords.
And he said to them, It is sufficient.
{Mk 14:26, 32-42 & Mt 26:30, 36-46 & Lk 22:39-46 & Jn 18:1 Garden between Stream of Kidron and Mountain of Olives, Late Thurs. night.}


22:39 And he came out and went, according to his custom, to the Mountain of Olives, and his disciples also followed him.

22:40 And when he happened to be at the place, he said to them, Pray that you* do not enter into temptation.

22:41 And he pulled away from them approximately a stone's throw, and placing himself on his knees and he prayed,

22:42 saying, Father, if you are willing to carry this cup away from me, but not my will, but let yours, happen.

22:43 And a messenger from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

22:44 And having become in agony, he prayed more intensely, and his sweat became like thick drops of blood going down upon the soil.

22:45 And when he rose* up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found that they had fallen-asleep from sorrow,

22:46 and said to them, Why are you* sleeping? Rise* up and pray, that* you* may not enter into temptation.


22:47 While he still spoke, behold a crowd and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and he drew near to Jesus to kiss him.

22:48 But Jesus said to him, Judas, are you giving up the Son of Man with a kiss?


22:49 And when those who were around him saw what will be coming, they said to him, Lord, shall we strike with the sword?

22:50 And a certain one out of them struck the bondservant of the high-priest and took off his right ear.


22:51 But answering, Jesus said, Permit this. And he touched his ear and healed him.

22:52 And Jesus said to the high-priests and captains of the temple and elders, that had come against him, Have you* come out with swords and clubs, like against a robber?

22:53 When I was with you* daily in the temple, you* did not stretch out your* hands against me, but this is your* hour and the authority of darkness .
{Mk 14:66-72 & Mt 26:69-75 & Lk 22:54-62 & Jn 18:25-27.}


22:54 But taking him, they led and brought him into the high-priest's house. But Peter followed from afar.


22:55 And when they had lit a fire in the middle of the courtyard and they had sat down together, Peter sat in the midst of them.

22:56 And a certain maidservant seeing him as he sat in the light of the fire and staring at him, said, This man was also with him.


22:57 But he denied him, saying, Woman, I do not know him.

22:58 And after a little bit another saw him and said, You also are one out of them.
But Peter said, Man, I am not.


22:59 And after approximately a one hour interval, then a certain other stoutly affirmed, saying, Of a truth this man was also with him; for* he is a Galilean.


22:60 But Peter said, Man, I do not know what you say. And instantly, while he still spoke the rooster crowed.

22:61 And the Lord turned and looked on Peter. And Peter was reminded of the word of the Lord, how that he said to him, Before the rooster crow this day you will deny me three times.

22:62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.
{Mk 14:55-65 & Mt 26:59-68 & Lk 22:63-65.}


22:63 And the men who held Jesus mocked him while whipping him.

22:64 And having covered him, they were beating his face, and were asking him, saying, Prophesy. Who is it who struck you?

22:65 And they spoke many other things to him, blaspheming.

22:67 If you are the Christ, tell us.
But he said to them, If I tell you*, you* may never* believe;

22:68 and if I also ask, you* may never* answer or release me.

22:69 From hereafter, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.


22:70 And they all said, Then* are you the Son of God?
And he said to them, You* are saying that I am.


22:71 And they said, Why do we still have need of testimony? For* we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.
