Luke 22:1–6

THE PLOT TO KILL JESUS

22 Then Festival of Unleavened Bread,o which is called Passover,p was approaching. 2 The chief priests and the scribes were looking for a way to put him to death,q because they were afraid of the people.r

3 Thens Satan entered Judas,t called Iscariot,u who was numbered among the Twelve. 4 He went away and discussed with the chief priests and temple policev how he could hand him overw to them. 5 They were glad and agreed to give him silver.A 6 So he accepted the offer and started looking for a good opportunity to betray him to them when the crowd was not present.
