Pesach is Near

Matt 26:1-5, 14-16; Mark 14:1, 2 10-11; Yochanan 11:45-53

22:1 Now the feastive of Matzah (unleavened bread) drew nigh, which is called the Pesach.

22:2 And the Rashei ha Kohanim and Sofrim (Torah-teachers) sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

22:3 Then entered satan into Yehudah surnamed K'riot, being of the number of the twelve.

22:4 And he went his way, and communed with the Rashei ha Kohanim and captains, how he might betray him unto them.

22:5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

22:6 And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

The Preparation of Pesach

Mat 26:17-25; Mark 14:12-21;Luke 22:7-9; Yochanan 13:21-30

22:7 Then came the Yom ha Matzah (unleavened bread), when the Pesach must be killed.

22:8 And he sent Kefa and Yochanan, saying, Go and prepare us the Pesach, that we may eat.

22:9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?

22:10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.

22:11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the beit, Adonay saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the Pesach with my Talmidim?

22:12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

22:13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the Pesach.

The True Meaning of the Pesach Meal

(Matt 26:26-30; Mark 14:22-26; 1 Cor 11:23-25)

22:14 And when the hour was come, Yeshua sat down, and the twelve shlichim with Him.

22:15 And Yeshua (ישוע) said unto them:

With desire I have desired to eat this Pesach with you before I suffer:

22:16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the Malkut Elohim.

22:17 And Yeshua (ישוע) took the cup of Redemption, and having made the Bracha, and said, Take this, and divide [it] among yourselves:

22:18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the Malkut Elohim shall come.

22:19 And having taken the Afikoman and having made the ha motzi Yeshua (ישוע) broke the  matzah, and gave unto them, saying:

This is My body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of Me.

22:20 Likewise also the cup after the meal, saying, This cup [is] the Brit Chadasha in My blood, which is shed for you.

22:21 But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me [is] with me on the table.

22:22 And truly the Son of Man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!

22:23 And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.

Who is the Greatest?

22:24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.

22:25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise mastership over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.

22:26 But ye [shall] not [be] so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

22:27 For whether [is] greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? [is] not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

22:28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.

22:29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as My Father hath appointed unto Me;

22:30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in My Kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the Shneyim Asar Shivtei Yisra'el.

Kefa's Denial Foretold

(Matt 26:31-35;Mark 14:27-31; John 13:36-38)

22:31 And Adonay said, Shimon, Shimon, behold, satan hath desired [to have] you, that he may sift [you] as wheat:

22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

22:33 And he said unto him, Master, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.

22:34 And he said, I tell thee, Kefa, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

Moshiach's Eved will lack nothing

22:35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

22:36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take [it], and likewise [his] scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

22:37 For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

22:38 And they said, Master, behold, here [are] two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

Yeshua's Tefillah on the Mount of Olives

22:39 And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his Talmidim also followed him.

22:40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them,

Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

22:41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,

22:42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

22:43 And there appeared a messenger unto him from heaven, strengthening him.

22:44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

22:45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his Talmidim, he found them sleeping for sorrow,

22:46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

Yudas Betrays Adonay

22:47 And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Yehudah, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Yeshua to kiss him.

22:48 But Yeshua (ישוע) said unto him, Yehudah, betrayest thou the Son of Man with a kiss?

22:49 When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Master, shall we smite with the sword?

22:50 And one of them smote the servant of the Kohen hagadol, and cut off his right ear.

22:51 And Yeshua (ישוע) answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

22:52 Then Yeshua (ישוע) said unto the Rashei ha Kohanim, and captains of the temple, and the Ziknei, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?

22:53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

Kefa's Denial of Yeshua

22:54 Then took they him, and led [him], and brought him into the Kohen hagadol's beit. And Kefa followed afar off.

22:55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Kefa sat down among them.

22:56 But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.

22:57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.

22:58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Kefa said, Man, I am not.

22:59 And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this [fellow] also was with him: for he is a Galilaios.

22:60 And Kefa said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.

22:61 And Adonay turned, and looked upon Kefa. And Kefa remembered the word of Adonay, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny Me thrice.

22:62 And Kefa went out, and wept bitterly.

Mocking and Beating of Yeshua

22:63 And the men that held Yeshua (ישוע) mocked Him, and smote [him].

22:64 And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?

22:65 And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.

22:66 And as soon as it was day, the Ziknei of the people and the Rashei ha Kohanim and the Sofrim (Torah-teachers) came together, and led him into their council, saying,

22:67 Art thou the Moshiach? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:

22:68 And if I also ask [you], ye will not answer me, nor let [me] go.

22:69 Hereafter shall the Son of Man sit on the right hand of the power of Elohim.

22:70 Then said they all, Art thou then Ben Elohim? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.

22:71 And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.
