Luke 22:1-2 In-Context

1 Now the festival of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, was near.

2 The chief priests and the scribes were looking for a way to put Jesus to death, for they were afraid of the people.

3 Then Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, who was one of the twelve;

4 he went away and conferred with the chief priests and officers of the temple police about how he might betray him to them.

5 They were greatly pleased and agreed to give him money.

6 So he consented and began to look for an opportunity to betray him to them when no crowd was present.
