The Plot Against Jesus
14:1Two days before the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the chief priests and the experts in the law1 were trying to find a way2 to arrest Jesus3 by stealth and kill him. 14:2For they said, “Not during the feast, so there won’t be a riot among the people.”4

- 2 Grk “were seeking how.”
- 3 Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
- 4 The suggestion here is that Jesus was too popular to openly arrest him. The verb were trying is imperfect. It suggests, in this context, that they were always considering the opportunities.
