Matthew:26:17-30
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And on the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread ,
the disciples came to Jesus ,
saying to Him ,
Where do you desire we should prepare for You to eat the Passover ?
*
And He said ,
Go into the city to a certain one and say to him ,
The Teacher says ,
My time is near ;
to you I will prepare the Passover with My disciples .
*
And the disciples did as Jesus ordered them ,
and prepared the Passover .
*
And evening coming ,
He reclined with the Twelve .
*
And as they were eating ,
He said ,
Truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me .
*
And grieving exceedingly ,
they began to say to Him ,
each of them ,
Lord ,
not I am the one ?
*
But answering ,
He said ,
The one dipping the hand with Me in the dish will betray Me .
*
Indeed ,
the Son of man goes ,
as it has been written about Him .
But woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed .
It were good for him if that man was never born .
*
And answering ,
the one betraying Him ,
Judas ,
said ,
Not I am the one ,
Rabbi ?
He said to him ,
You said it .
*
And as they ate ,
taking the bread and blessing it ,
Jesus broke and gave to the disciples ,
and said ,
Take ,
eat ;
this is My body .
*
And taking the cup ,
and giving thanks ,
He gave to them ,
saying ,
Drink all of it .
*
For this is My blood of the New Covenant which concerning many is being poured out for remission of sins .
*
But I say to you ,
I will not at all drink of this fruit of the vine after this until that day when I drink it new with you in the kingdom of My Father .
*
And singing a hymn ,
they went to the Mount of Olives .
