Journey Through the Bible

Matthew 26:2-5

2 “As you know, the Passover is two days away—and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”

3 Then the chief priests and the elders of the people assembled in the palace of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas,

4 and they plotted to arrest Jesus in some sly way and kill him.

5 “But not during the Feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”
