Mark 14:1-2

The Chief Priests and Scribes Plot to Kill Jesus

1 Now after two days it was the Passover and the feast of Unleavened Bread, and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how, [after] arresting him by stealth, they could kill [him].

2 For they said, "Not at the feast, lest there be an uproar by the people."
