Luke 22:1-7

1 The Festival of Unleavened Bread, which is also called Passover, was approaching.
2 The leading priests and teachers of religious law were plotting how to kill Jesus, but they were afraid of the people’s reaction.
3 Then Satan entered into Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve disciples,
4 and he went to the leading priests and captains of the Temple guard to discuss the best way to betray Jesus to them.
5 They were delighted, and they promised to give him money.
6 So he agreed and began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesus so they could arrest him when the crowds weren’t around.
7 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread arrived, when the Passover lamb is sacrificed.
