Matthew 26:17

Bible in Basic English 1965

Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where are we to make ready for you to take the Passover meal?

See the chapter Copy

Keep it till the fourteenth day of the same month, when everyone who is of the children of Israel is to put it to death between sundown and dark.

And from that time he was watching for a chance to give him into their hands.

And the disciples did as Jesus had said to them; and they made ready the Passover.

But Jesus made answer, saying to him, Let it be so now: because so it is right for us to make righteousness complete. Then he gave him baptism.
