Luke 22:13

And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover. AND THEY WENT, AND FOUND AS HE HAD SAID UNTO THEM: AND THEY MADE READY THE PASSOVER. See the similarly minute directions to the two who were sent to procure the donkey on which He rode into Jerusalem, Luke 19:30....

7-18 Christ kept the ordinances of the law, particularly that of the passover, to teach us to observe his gospel institutions, and most of all that of the Lord's supper. Those who go upon Christ's word, need not fear disappointment. According to the orders given them, the disciples got all ready for the passover. Jesus bids this passover welcome. He desired it, though he knew his sufferings would follow, because it was in order to his Father's glory and man's redemption. He takes his leave of all passovers, signifying thereby his doing away all the ordinances of the ceremonial law, of which the passover was one of the earliest and chief. That type was laid aside, because now in the kingdom of God the substance was come....

EXPOSITION LUKE 23:1 THE LAST PASSOVER. LUKE 22:1, LUKE 22:2 _Short explanatory introduction._ LUKE 22:1 NOW THE FEAST OF UNLEAVENED BREAD DREW NIGH, WHICH IS CALLED THE PASSOVER. These words show that many of the readers for whom this Gospel was intended were foreigners, who were unacquainted with Jewish terms such as the "Passover." _Passover _(τὸ πάσχα, חסף) means, literally, "a passing." The feast so named commemorated the manner

From Bethany to Jerusalem: AND FOUND AS HE HAD SAID UNTO THEM; they met the man with the pitcher of water, and by following him, found the house Christ meant to keep the passover at; they told the master of it, what Christ ordered them, who immediately showed them a very convenient room, as he had described to them: AND THEY MADE READY THE PASSOVER; provided a lamb, and got it killed and dressed, and prepared every thing necessary for the keeping of the feast, according to divine appointment; Matthew 26:19....

Luke 22:1. _Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover. And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people._ Dastardly fear often drives men to the greatest crimes. He who is not brave enough to be master of his own spirit, and to follow the dictates of his own conscience, may do, before long, he little knows what. Because of the fear of the people, the chief priests and scribes were driven to compass the death of Christ by craft, and to bring him to his death by the cruel betrayal of Judas, one of his own apostles. Luke 22:3. Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
