7. The Day of Unleavened Bread came. This was the day the Passover lambs had to be sacrificed.
8. Jesus said to Peter and John, “Go and prepare the Passover meal for us to eat.”
9. They asked, “Where do you want us to prepare it?”Jesus said to them,
10. “Listen! After you go into the city, you will see a man carrying a jar of water. Follow him into the house that he enters.
11. Tell the person who owns that house, ‘The Teacher asks that you please show us the room where he and his followers may eat the Passover meal.’
12. Then he will show you a large room upstairs. This room is ready for you. Prepare the Passover meal there.”
13. So Peter and John left. Everything happened as Jesus had said. So they prepared the Passover meal.
14. When the time came, Jesus and the apostles were sitting at the table.
15. He said to them, “I wanted very much to eat this Passover meal with you before I die.
16. I will never eat another Passover meal until it is given its true meaning in the kingdom of God.”
