Matthew 26:14-19
14 Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the leading priests 15 and asked, โHow much will you pay me to betray Jesus to you?โ And they gave him thirty pieces of silver. 16 From that time on, Judas began looking for an opportunity to betray him.
17 On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, Jesus' disciples came to him and asked, "Where do you want us to prepare the Passover meal?" [The week - Spring holy week of three holy days (plus the weekly Sabbath, so also three โpreparation daysโ) - was called either Passover, or Unleavened Bread, two of the holy days of the week. And begins with Passover the โpreparation dayโ for First Day of Unleavened Bread, upon which is eaten the Passover meal, which we would think of as evening of that same day, as the days begin at sunset rather than at midnight. So I have come to think when he sends the two for the room, Passover/preparation day is beginning and the sun is setting.]
18 He said, "Go to a certain man in the city, and tell him that the teacher says, 'My time is near. I will observe the Passover with my disciples at your house.'โ 19 So the disciples did as Jesus told them and began to prepare for Passover. [Greek to prepare #2090 not #2092 prepared.] (Which day began at sunset instead of at midnight.)

Peterโs First Letter
~ 1 Peter 1:13-25 ~
13 Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope [elpis - expectation] - on the grace to be brought to you - when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. 14 As children of obedience, do not be conformed to the desires of your former ignorance [agnoia - not knowing]. 15 But just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do. (Itโs not beyond us, but depends on Godโs changing and empowering grace. All of life is sacred. Besides itโs a goal, not yet a completed marurity.) 16 As it has been written: "You shall be holy, because I am holy." 17 You call him Father, when you pray. He judges all people by the same standard, according to what each one does, so spend the rest of your lives as pilgrims with reverence. 18 You were rescued and redeemed from the useless way of life you learned from your ancestors. But you know you were not ransomed with such things as silver or gold that doesnโt last, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. (The sacrifice system to appease - strong in the human psyche - appeases the fragile human conscience and psyche.) 20 He was appointed beforehand to this before the foundation of the world and was revealed in these late days for your sake. 21 Through him you believe in God - who raised him from the dead and glorified him - and so your faith and hope [elpis - expectation] are in God.
22 Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth, have sincere love for each other, loving one another deeply, from the heart. 23 For you have been born again, not of seed that perishes, but of imperishable seed. Through the living and enduring word/promises of God. 24 As the Scriptures say, โPeople are like grass. Their beauty like flowers in the field. Like the grass that withers, and the flower that fades. 25 But what the Lord has said will stand forever!โ This word is the Good News that was told to you.
