Matthew 26:1-5 - The Chief Priests And Elders Plot To Kill Jesus

¹ Now when Jesus had finished these discourses, he said to his disciples, ² ye know that in two days the feast of the passover will begin, and the son of man be delivered up to be crucified.

³ About this time the chief priests, and the elders of the people, assembled in the palace of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas, ⁴ and consulted how to seize Jesus by surprize, and take away his life. ⁵ but they said, this must not be done on the feastday, for fear the people rise.
