John 11:55-57

International Children’s Bible

⁵⁵ It was almost time for the Jewish Passover Feast. Many from the country went up to Jerusalem before the Passover. They went to do the special things to make themselves pure. ⁵⁶ The people looked for Jesus. They stood in the Temple and were asking each other, “Is he coming to the Feast? What do you think?” ⁵⁷ But the leading priests and the Pharisees had given orders about Jesus. They said that if anyone knew where Jesus was, he must tell them. Then they could arrest Jesus.
