Matthew 26:1-5

The Plot to Kill Jesus

1 When Jesus had finished saying all this, He told His disciples,

2 "You know ^[a] that the Passover takes place after two days, and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified."

3 Then the chief priests^[b] and the elders of the people assembled in the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

4 and they conspired to arrest Jesus in a treacherous way and kill Him.

5 "Not during the festival," they said, "so there won't be rioting among the people."
