Christ is betrayed. They eat the Passover lamb. The institution of the sacrament. They dispute who should be greatest; he reproves them. He prays three times upon the mount. They seize him and bring him to the high priest’s house. Peter denies him three times, and they bring Jesus before the council.

22 The feast of sweet bread drew near, which is called the Passover. And the high priests and scribes were seeking how to kill Jesus, but they feared the people. Then Satan entered into Judas, whose surname was Iscariot (who was of the number of the twelve), and he went his way and communed with the high priests and officers, how he might betray Jesus to them. And they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he accepted, and sought an opportunity to betray Jesus to them when the people were away.
